EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph, titled "Dr. Larrup in Loft - Apple Cores," is a rare glimpse into the past, taken from the Boswell Collection, circa 1900. The image captures Dr. Larrup, a doctor of the early 20th century, as he examines apple cores in a dimly lit loft. The doctor, dressed in a long coat and holding a lantern, leans over a large wooden table covered with apple cores, his expression intense as he studies them. The loft, filled with large sacks of apples and barrels, is a testament to the doctor's likely involvement in the apple cultivation industry. The presence of the lantern suggests that this examination may have taken place after hours, adding to the intrigue of the scene. The apple cores, carefully arranged on the table, may hold the key to the doctor's investigation. At the time, apple cores were believed to contain seeds that could transmit apple scab, a common disease affecting apples. Dr. Larrup may have been conducting research to prevent the spread of the disease, ensuring a healthy crop for his community. This photograph offers a unique perspective into the life of a doctor during the early 1900s, showcasing his dedication to his profession and the importance of agricultural research. The image is a captivating reminder of the past, inviting us to ponder the mysteries of the apple cores and the doctor's intentions.
