EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Mammoth Arborvitae," dates back to February 19, 1862. It showcases an impressive Mammoth Arborvitae tree, a species of Thuja plicata, native to the western North America Pacific Coast. This particular specimen, captured in this image, is a testament to the grandeur and beauty of these trees during the mid-19th century. The Mammoth Arborvitae, also known as the Western Red Cedar, is renowned for its size, with some trees reaching heights of over 300 feet and diameters of up to 20 feet. The tree in this photograph, with its towering height and dense foliage, exudes a sense of majesty and awe. The image, taken during the Victorian era, offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a connection to the natural world as it existed over a century ago. The photograph itself is a work of art, with the tree's intricate branches and the soft focus of the surrounding landscape creating a dreamlike quality that transports us to another time. The Mammoth Arborvitae was highly valued by indigenous peoples for its many uses, including its wood, which was prized for its durability and resistance to decay. The tree's bark was also used for medicinal purposes, and the branches were used to make baskets and mats. This photograph serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our natural heritage and the beauty that can be found in the world around us. The Mammoth Arborvitae, a symbol of strength and resilience, continues to thrive in the Pacific Northwest, inspiring awe and wonder in all who encounter it.
