EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Tea pickers, Peradeniya, Ceylon, 1898" takes us back in time to the lush tea fields of Sri Lanka. The image was created by Christian Wilhelm Allers as part of his book "Rund um die Erde" (Round the Earth), where he beautifully documented various cultures through both writing and illustrations. In this particular scene, we see a group of male tea pickers diligently working amidst the picturesque landscape. Their traditional attire includes turbans and headdresses that add an element of cultural authenticity to the photograph. With baskets strapped on their backs, these hardworking men crouch down to carefully pluck tea leaves from the bushes. The image not only showcases the labor-intensive nature of tea cultivation but also provides a glimpse into life in 19th-century Ceylon. It captures a moment frozen in time when agriculture played a vital role in shaping communities and economies. Christian Wilhelm Allers' lithograph perfectly encapsulates the essence of this profession while highlighting its significance within Sri Lankan society. As we admire this historical snapshot, let us appreciate the dedication and skill displayed by these farm workers who contributed to one of Ceylon's most renowned industries - tea production.
