"A Farrier Shoeing a Plough Horse, with a Donkey, in a Forge Interior" is a 19th-century oil painting by English artist Edward Robert Smythe (1810–1899), known for his rural and agricultural scenes that often depict horses and country life. This particular work captures a moment inside a blacksmith's forge where a farrier is in the process of shoeing a plough horse. The scene is rich with detail, reflecting the artist's keen observation of rural crafts and traditions.

Smythe's painting is set within the dimly lit interior of a forge, where the glow of the furnace casts a warm light on the subjects. The composition is carefully arranged to draw the viewer's eye to the central action: the farrier's concentrated effort as he fits a horseshoe to the hoof of the patient horse. A donkey, included in the scene, adds to the narrative, possibly awaiting its turn or simply present as a companion animal, a common sight in rural settings of the time.

The artwork is notable for its realistic portrayal of the figures and the atmosphere of the forge. Smythe's attention to detail is evident in the textures of the horse's coat, the anvil's worn surface, and the tools scattered around the workspace. The painting not only serves as a visual record of 19th-century rural life but also reflects the artist's appreciation for the labor and skill involved in the farrier's trade.

Edward Robert Smythe was an accomplished painter associated with the Norwich School of artists, a group known for their dedication to depicting the natural beauty and agricultural life of the English countryside. "A Farrier Shoeing a Plough Horse, with a Donkey, in a Forge Interior" exemplifies Smythe's contribution to this genre and remains a valuable piece of British art history, offering insight into the working lives of people and animals during the Victorian era.
