EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the village of Imwas (Emmaus) in Palestine, circa 1900. The image, captured by Underwood & Underwood as part of their series called "Travelling in the Holy Land Through the Stereoscope" offers a glimpse into life during that era. In this particular scene, we see a woman from Imwas gracefully carrying a pitcher on her head. Her presence exudes strength and resilience as she navigates through the village streets. This depiction not only showcases the daily tasks undertaken by women at that time but also highlights their significant role within society. Imwas holds immense biblical importance as it is believed to be the location where Jesus appeared after his resurrection. The religious significance of this village adds another layer of depth to this photograph, emphasizing its connection to Christianity and spirituality. The monochrome composition enhances the timeless quality of this image, transporting us directly into early 20th-century Palestine. It serves as a visual reminder of how history shapes our present reality and invites contemplation about cultural heritage and traditions that have endured over centuries. This remarkable print from Heritage Images allows us to appreciate both Jesse Hurlbut's skilled photography and Underwood & Underwood's commitment to capturing moments that transcend time itself.
