EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time in France, Brittany, Ile-et-Vilaine (35), Cancale. Three women are depicted standing amidst the picturesque oyster parks, their aprons billowing gently in the breeze. The year is 1900, and these women are engaged in the age-old tradition of oyster farming.
The scene exudes a sense of tranquility and harmony with nature. The lush greenery surrounding the women provides a stark contrast to their traditional Breton costumes. Their faces are obscured from view, adding an air of mystery to the image.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we can almost hear the sounds of seagulls overhead and feel the salty sea breeze on our skin. The women's presence in the oyster parks speaks to a deep connection with their environment and a profound respect for the land that sustains them.
This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of simpler times when life moved at a slower pace and people were more closely attuned to nature's rhythms. It is a testament to the enduring beauty of Brittany and its rich agricultural heritage.
In admiring this image, we are transported back to an era long gone but not forgotten—a time when oysters were harvested by hand and traditions were passed down through generations.
