EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of Paint Rocks on the French Broad River in North Carolina, circa 1902. The picture presents a nostalgic view of a bygone era, showcasing the picturesque and historically significant natural wonder that has drawn visitors for centuries. The vibrant, coloured rocks along the riverbank are a testament to the area's rich history. The 19th century image, with its old, weathered trees and calm, meandering river, evokes a sense of tranquility and wonder. The use of the Photochrom process, a popular method for producing colourized photographs during this time, adds to the image's allure and brings the scene to life in a way that photographs could not. Paint Rocks, located on the French Broad River in Transylvania County, North Carolina, is a unique geological formation that has captivated visitors for generations. The rocks, which are covered in various hues of red, orange, and yellow, are formed from iron oxide and other minerals. The area has long been a popular destination for tourists seeking a glimpse into the past and a connection to nature. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when life moved at a slower pace and the natural world held a greater allure. As we gaze upon the scene, we can almost hear the gentle sounds of the river and the rustling of the leaves in the breeze. This image is not only a beautiful work of art, but also a valuable historical record of a place and time that continues to captivate and inspire.
