This print takes us back to the 1800s in Costa Rica, where native workers are diligently harvesting coffee on a picturesque plantation. The hand-colored woodcut of this 19th-century illustration beautifully captures the essence of rural life during that era. In this vintage scene, we see a hardworking family immersed in their laborious task. The woman stands out among the field hands, showcasing her integral role in this historical moment. With determination etched on their faces, these workers exemplify the spirit of manual labor and dedication that fueled the growth of agribusiness in Central America. The lush greenery surrounding them serves as a reminder of the fertile lands that have nurtured coffee crops for centuries. This image not only depicts an important chapter in Costa Rica's agricultural history but also highlights how coffee became a vital part of global commerce during the 19th century. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art, it is impossible not to appreciate the significance of agriculture and its impact on society throughout time. It reminds us that behind every cup of our favorite morning drink lies countless hours of hard work and generations dedicated to cultivating these precious beans. This print from North Wind Picture Archives allows us to travel back in time and witness firsthand the rich history embedded within each sip we take today.
