EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1935, depicts a vibrant scene of women from the tropical island of Sao Tome, Guinea, engaged in the traditional cocoa harvest. The lush greenery of the island's landscape serves as the backdrop to this colorful and cultural moment. Dressed in their regional costumes, the women work together, their faces expressing a sense of unity and determination. Cocoa beans, the source of chocolate, are meticulously gathered from the trees, each bean carefully selected for its ripeness and quality. The women's baskets are filled to the brim, ready to be transported to the processing facilities. The cocoa harvest was, and still is, an essential part of the island's economy, providing a livelihood for many of its residents. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and heritage of Sao Tome and its people, showcasing the beauty and importance of their agricultural traditions. The women's dedication and hard work are a testament to the enduring connection between the people of Sao Tome and the land they call home.
