EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the cotton plantations of Rome, Georgia in 1898. The artist, BL Singley, beautifully captures the essence of this era through stereoscopic photography. In this image, we witness a bustling scene of laborers engaged in the arduous task of cotton picking. During that time, Georgia was a significant player in the global cotton industry. Surprisingly, it produced as much cotton as China and half as much as India. This photograph serves as a testament to the sheer scale and importance of American agriculture during the 19th century. The plantation workers depicted here are diligently harvesting cotton from vast fields under an unforgiving sun. Their occupation reflects not only their dedication but also their reliance on this crop for their livelihoods. As we delve into this monochrome masterpiece, we can't help but appreciate its historical significance. It offers us a glimpse into an important chapter in America's past – one marked by agricultural prowess and economic growth driven by industries like cotton production. BL Singley's skillful composition transports us to another time and place; it allows us to reflect on both the hardships endured by those who worked these lands and the profound impact they had on shaping our nation's history.
