Great Burin, South Coast, Newfoundland, USA: A Glimpse into the Past This photograph takes us back in time to the early 1900s, showcasing the breathtaking beauty of the Great Burin Peninsula located on the south coast of Newfoundland, Canada. The peninsula, originally named Buria by Basque fishermen during the 16th century, is a captivating landscape of rugged cliffs, pristine waters, and quaint fishing villages. The image, part of the Box 160 Modern New York, Boswell collection, offers a glimpse into a bygone era. The crystal-clear waters reveal the rich marine life that has long attracted fishermen from around the world. The rocky shoreline, etched with the marks of time, stands as a testament to the harsh yet resilient spirit of those who have called this land home. The Burin Peninsula, located in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, is a place where history and nature converge. Its unique name is a reminder of the diverse cultural influences that have shaped its history. The Basque fishermen who first settled here over 400 years ago left an indelible mark on the region, and their legacy continues to be celebrated today.
