EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the year 1873, offering a glimpse into the primitive sugar mill in Santo Domingo. The image is taken from Samuel Hazard's book "Santo Domingo: past and present, with a glance at Hayti" which provides valuable insights into the history of this Caribbean location. The engraving showcases an important aspect of industry during that time - the sugar industry. It depicts a bustling scene where workers are engaged in trade and manufacturing, highlighting the significance of this sector in the West Indies. The Greater Antilles region, including Hispaniola (where Santo Domingo is located), played a crucial role in sugar production during this era. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to the artwork, emphasizing details such as machinery and laborers' attire. This art medium captures not only the physical aspects but also evokes emotions associated with that period. Although we do not know who specifically created this print, it stands as a testament to their talent for capturing historical moments through engravings. As viewers, we can appreciate both its artistic value and its contribution to documenting significant events. This print serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and invites us to reflect on how industries like sugar production have evolved over time.
