EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of a lunch stop in 1877, titled "Twenty minutes for lunch - DUSTERS." This evocative photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of travelers during the late 19th century. The scene is set in a rural area, with a group of weary travelers gathered around a simple table, taking a much-needed break from their journey. The men, dressed in dusters or long, heavy coats to protect themselves from the elements, sit at the table, while their horses are tethered nearby. The women, dressed in elegant Victorian attire, prepare a hearty meal on a makeshift stove. The atmosphere is one of camaraderie and relaxation, as the travelers enjoy their hard-earned respite from the rigors of the road. The sun casts a warm, golden light over the scene, adding to the sense of tranquility and serenity. Despite the rustic surroundings, there is a sense of order and organization, with the travelers taking turns to help prepare the meal and tend to their horses. This image offers a fascinating insight into the daily routines and rhythms of life during the late 1800s, a time when travel was a more laborious and time-consuming endeavor. The photograph is a beautiful reminder of the simple pleasures of life, and the importance of taking a break to rest and refuel, even in the most unlikely of places. With its rich detail and evocative composition, this image is a must-have for anyone interested in history, photography, or the human experience.
