EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the lush landscapes of Costa Rica in 1909. The image showcases the labor-intensive process of harvesting bananas, a vital industry for this Central American country during the early 20th century. In this detailed stereoscopic card, we see workers utilizing pack animals such as donkeys and mules to transport their bountiful harvest. The dense, overgrown banana plants create a striking backdrop as these dedicated farmers carefully pick each fruit. The towering banana trees stand tall, showcasing nature's abundance in this tropical paradise. This photograph not only captures the essence of agriculture but also provides a glimpse into the rich biodiversity that thrives within Costa Rica's borders. With its monochrome aesthetic, the print transports us to an era long gone while reminding us of humanity's timeless connection with nature and our reliance on it for sustenance. Although created by an unknown artist, Keystone has preserved this historical moment through stereoscopic photography—a technique that adds depth and dimension to still images. As we admire this remarkable piece from The Print Collector collection, let us appreciate the hard work and dedication behind every bunch of bananas we enjoy today—an enduring symbol of Costa Rican culture and agricultural heritage.
