EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "PDC-F-002137-0000" takes us back in time to the late 19th century. The image captures a scene of immense historical significance - a centuries-old tree standing tall in Wawona, Yosemite Valley, California. However, what makes this photograph truly intriguing is the fact that the base of the tree has been meticulously cut out to allow for the passage of traffic. The date on this remarkable piece of art indicates that it was taken between 1880 and 1885, offering us a glimpse into an era long gone. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a couple posing elegantly next to their horse-drawn carriage on a road surrounded by lush vegetation. Both individuals are dressed impeccably for daytime travel; the man dons a bowler hat while holding onto his cane with one hand and clutching his purse with another. The woman stands gracefully beside him wearing fashionable clothing and an exquisite headdress that adds an air of sophistication to her appearance. As our eyes wander through this enchanting composition by Taber from Alinari, we can't help but marvel at how human ingenuity has found its way even amidst nature's grandeur. This photograph serves as a testament to mankind's ability to adapt and coexist harmoniously with their surroundings. Let this evocative image transport you back in time as you imagine yourself strolling along those very roads or perhaps embarking on your own journey through Yosemite Valley over a century ago.
