EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 20th century in Tenerife, Canary Islands. The image features a group of wood gatherers, their donkey standing proudly beside them. Dressed in traditional Spanish attire, the women wear elegant dresses and hats that add a touch of charm to the scene. The wood gatherers are seen diligently collecting firewood, an essential task for their daily lives. A child is also present among them, perhaps learning the ways of her ancestors from an early age. Their serious expressions hint at the importance they place on this laborious activity. The portrait captures not only a moment frozen in time but also offers insight into the culture and lifestyle of these island inhabitants during this era. The simplicity and authenticity portrayed by these hardworking individuals reflect their strong connection with nature and reliance on its resources. As we gaze upon this monochrome photograph, we can't help but feel transported to another time and place – a glimpse into a world where people relied on each other's strength and resilience to sustain themselves. This print serves as both a historical document preserving an important period in Tenerife's history as well as an artistic testament to the beauty found within everyday life.
