EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1906, showcases the thriving timber industry in the Drvar region of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Drvar, already renowned in the Austro-Hungarian era for its high-quality wood, continues to be one of the largest logging and wood-processing locations in the country. The serene riverside setting of this image, with the UNAC river meandering through the landscape, adds to the picturesque beauty of the area. The timber industry was a significant economic force in the region during the early 20th century. The image depicts a bustling jetty, where logs are being loaded onto boats for transportation downstream. The industrial process of transforming raw logs into valuable timber products is evident in the background, with sawmills and other processing facilities visible. The Drvar region's rich natural resources, including its abundant forests, have made it a vital contributor to the country's economy for generations. The timber industry's legacy continues to be felt in Bosnia and Herzegovina, with the region remaining a hub for forestry and wood processing to this day. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the industry's importance and the picturesque landscape that has sustained it.
