Ploughing with a pair of horses, 1937

A farmer in a cap walks behind a pair of dark horses and a plough across a broad, flat field under a pale sky, the turned earth dark behind him; closer, he steadies the handles as the horses pull past, and at the end of the furrow he leans on a lever to turn the plough while the team stands. Most German farms still ploughed with horses in 1937; the tractor was a rarity outside the large estates of the east.
