EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between approximately 1890 and 1900, transports us back in time to the picturesque town of Jalta, located in the Crimea region of Ukraine. More specifically, we find ourselves on the Gursuff (Gurzuf) Road, a scenic route that winds through the verdant hills and valleys leading to the Black Sea coast. The image, richly coloured and imbued with a sense of nostalgia, offers a glimpse into the historical past of this beloved destination. Horse-drawn carriages and wagons make their way along the winding road, their occupants seemingly unfazed by the rugged terrain. The quaint wooden houses lining the roadside, with their intricately carved details and red rooftops, add to the charming scene. The nineteenth century comes alive in this photograph, as we imagine the daily life of the residents of Jalta and the Crimea during this period. The natural beauty of the region is on full display, with the lush greenery and clear blue skies providing a striking contrast to the rustic charm of the village. This photograph, a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Ukraine and Russia, invites us to reflect on the past and appreciate the simple pleasures of a bygone era. The use of the Photochrom process, a popular method for producing coloured photographs during this time, adds to the vibrancy and depth of the image, making it a truly unique and valuable historical document.
