Fotografía con un valor de documento histórico y sentimental, sobre la forma de segar en 19th. Creo que estaban bastante adelantados a su tiempo, por el juego de herramientas que porta el carro. Los haces de cereal quedan muy bien a un costado. El gorro era necesario para defenderse del sol, vestían bien y me parece que tienen la compañía de un cazador.

In those days almost everyone wore hats all day outdoors. The gun may have been carried so that if they disturbed pheasants or rabbits as they worked, they could shoot them and have them for dinner.
