EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting beauty of Hanging Moss on Live-Oak in Savannah, Georgia, circa 1897. The creator of this mesmerizing image remains unknown, but their talent for capturing the essence of nature is undeniable. The Spanish moss (Tillandsia usneoides) gracefully drapes itself over the branches of a majestic live oak tree (Quercus virginiana), which is characteristic to this region. This epiphytic plant adds an ethereal touch to the landscape, creating a scene straight out of a fairytale. The photograph was featured in "A Tour Through the New World America" authored by Professor Geo. R. Cromwell and published by C. N. Greig & Co. , London in 1897. It serves as a testament to both the artistic and scientific value that botanical photography holds. As we gaze upon this snapshot from another era, we are transported back to 19th century America, where horse-drawn vehicles traverse through picturesque lanes lined with these magnificent trees. The historic streets of Savannah come alive before our eyes, revealing glimpses into a time long gone. This monochrome portrait not only showcases the natural beauty found in Savannah's deep south but also highlights its architectural charm with an obelisk standing tall amidst the scenery. It reminds us of how intertwined humanity and nature truly are. With every glance at this remarkable print, we are reminded of our connection to history and encouraged to appreciate the wonders that surround us today.
