EDITORS COMMENTS
This print of the West Indies Sombrero in the Leeward Islands takes us back to a significant moment in history. Once a site that was heavily exploited for its phosphates, this sombrero-shaped landmass served as a valuable resource for many years. However, it is with a heavy heart that we must acknowledge the sad reality that the deposits have now been completely exhausted.
Dating back to 1865, this image offers us a glimpse into the past when this area played a crucial role in shaping the region's economy and development. The historical significance of this location cannot be understated, as it serves as a reminder of our complex relationship with natural resources and their finite nature.

May it inspire us to strive towards a more harmonious coexistence with nature, ensuring that future generations can continue to marvel at wonders like the West Indies Sombrero.
