EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of Brazil - the collection of latex in Para. The image shows workers tapping a tree to collect its sap, which is then used to produce rubber. This traditional method of collecting latex dates back to 1899 and provides insight into the early days of Brazil's rubber industry.
The scene depicted in this photograph showcases the laborious process involved in harvesting latex. Workers are seen carefully extracting the sap from trees, highlighting the manual effort required for this task. The lush green surroundings and tropical climate of Para serve as a picturesque backdrop to this historical moment.
Through this image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how natural resources were harvested and utilized in early 20th century Brazil. It serves as a reminder of the country's rich industrial heritage and its reliance on industries such as rubber production.
