EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the vibrant coffee plantations of Guadeloupe in the 1930s. The image showcases a scene of hardworking coffee pickers laboring under the tropical sun, their faces etched with determination and resilience. The plantation stretches out before them, filled with rows upon rows of lush coffee bushes that have become synonymous with this Caribbean island. Coffee planting had been established here since 1770, and by the mid-1770s, cocoa had also emerged as a significant export product for Guadeloupe. In this snapshot captured by an unknown photographer, we witness two men immersed in their occupation as they carefully select ripe coffee cherries from the branches. Their presence amidst nature's bounty highlights the integral role agriculture plays in shaping local industry and rural life on these French West Indies Lesser Antilles islands. The monochromatic tones lend a timeless quality to this portrait, emphasizing both its historical significance and artistic value. As we gaze at this mesmerizing image through our stereoscope lens, we are transported back in time to an era when manual labor was essential for producing goods that would be traded across borders. This photograph serves as a testament to human perseverance and regionalism while offering us a glimpse into an agricultural world that has evolved over time but still remains deeply rooted within Guadeloupe's cultural fabric.
