EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Coming Through The Rye" we are transported back in time to Korea circa 1905. A group of men, their faces obscured by the haze of smoke from their pipes, pass through a field of tall grass in single file. Drawn by Frank Dadd, RI, after a sketch by C. W. Cole, this image captures a moment frozen in history. The composition is both mysterious and intriguing as the figures navigate through the dense vegetation with determination. Their purposeful stride suggests they have embarked on an important journey or perhaps are simply traversing the vast landscape for leisurely reasons. The monochromatic palette adds depth and texture to the scene, emphasizing every blade of grass swaying gently in the breeze. It evokes a sense of tranquility amidst nature's beauty while also hinting at an underlying story waiting to be discovered. This photograph from Hulton Archive allows us to glimpse into a different era, offering us a window into Korean culture during that period. It invites contemplation about these men's lives and experiences—what brought them together on this particular day? What lies beyond those fields? Through its timeless charm and artistic execution, "Coming Through The Rye" reminds us of our connection to history and how even simple moments can hold profound significance.
