EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Scene of Contrast: Tiburon, Marin County, California, USA, circa 1910 - Docks, Railway, and Hilltop Fire" This evocative photograph captures the picturesque waterfront of Tiburon, Marin County, California, USA, during the early 1910s. The image showcases the unique blend of land and sea, industry and nature, that defines this charming coastal town. In the foreground, the docks bustle with activity, as ships and boats moor, unload their cargo, and prepare to set sail once more. The railway pierhead, extending into the bay, is a testament to the area's rich transportation history, connecting Tiburon to the wider world beyond. However, the serene scene is disrupted by the ominous smoke rising from the hilltop in the background. The fire, a stark reminder of the unpredictable forces of nature, adds an element of drama and intrigue to the image. The hills, lush with greenery, provide a beautiful contrast to the water and the industrial structures below. The photograph, taken circa 1910, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the character and charm of Tiburon during a bygone era. The combination of the working docks, the railway, and the hilltop fire creates a captivating tableau that tells a story of the town's history and its connection to the sea. This image, with its rich details and timeless appeal, is a must-have for anyone interested in the history and beauty of California's coastline. It is a reminder of the past, a celebration of the present, and a promise of the future. Mary Evans Prints Online, Rights Managed.
