In this print captured by Duncan Maxwell/Robert Harding, we are transported to the lush landscapes of Gielle Tea Garden in Darjeeling, West Bengal, India. The image showcases a group of hardworking Nepali tea pickers as they go about their daily routine amidst the picturesque tea plantation. With baskets balanced gracefully on their heads and shoulders, these women epitomize strength and resilience. Their colorful traditional attire adds vibrancy to the scene against the backdrop of verdant greenery. Each plucker is fully engrossed in her task, carefully selecting only the finest tea leaves with practiced precision. This snapshot offers a glimpse into the labor-intensive process behind our beloved cup of tea. It reminds us that every sip we take is a result of countless hours spent by dedicated individuals like these pickers who work tirelessly under the sun.
