EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A New Beginning: Disembarkation at St. Vincent Island, Cape Verde Islands, circa 1908 This evocative photograph captures the moment of disembarkation at the pier of St. Vincent Island, part of the enchanting Cape Verde Islands located in the Atlantic Ocean. The image, taken around 1908, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the raw beauty and simplicity of island life during the early 1900s. The scene is set against a backdrop of rolling hills, their verdant greenery contrasting starkly with the deep blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean. The pier, or jetty, extends gracefully into the sea, connecting the land to the boats that have brought travelers from afar. The boats, with their distinctive sails and oars, are reminiscent of a bygone era, their hulls glistening in the sunlight as they gently rock in the water. People can be seen making their way down the ladder from the boats, their belongings in tow, as they begin their new journey on land. Some are assisted by others, the warmth and camaraderie of the community evident in their interactions. The scene is one of anticipation and excitement, as the travelers embark on the next chapter of their lives, leaving behind the familiarity of the sea for the promise of new experiences on the island. The Disembarkation Pier at St. Vincent Island stands as a testament to the enduring allure of the Cape Verde Islands and the Atlantic Ocean, their rich history, and the connections they have forged between people from all corners of the world. This photograph invites us to reflect on the journeys we have taken and the ones that lie ahead, as we too, are carried along by the currents of life.
