EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, captured by Underwood & Underwood in the early 1900s, takes us back to the serene mountains of Lebanon, Syria. The image showcases a group of men diligently tending to their silkworm plantation amidst the breathtaking beauty of nature. In this snapshot, we witness an essential part of silk production - feeding silk worms their breakfast of mulberry leaves. The men carefully distribute these nourishing leaves to ensure healthy growth and development for the silkworms. Their dedication is evident as they navigate through rows of trees with utmost precision. The Middle Eastern landscape serves as a stunning backdrop for this scene, with majestic mountain ranges stretching into the distance. It highlights both the harmony between human activity and natural surroundings and the significance of agriculture in this region's economy. This stereoscopic slide offers a unique perspective on an industry that has thrived for centuries in Lebanon's mountains. It reminds us of the intricate processes involved in silk manufacturing and how it relies on careful cultivation and nurturing from dedicated individuals like these men. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever – a testament to both human ingenuity and our deep connection with nature.
