About this work
On a yard a farrier with nails is attaching a horseshoe to the hoof of a horse. A man holds the horse's hind leg ready so the smith can do his work. Above the smith's workshop hangs a horseshoe. Meanwhile a man with a whip is having a conversation with a rider. Subject headings within the Atlas Zeden en Gewoonten: Trade, Industry and Traffic, Profession and Business, Male, Workers of metal.
