EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking photograph captures the awe-inspiring view over terraced mountain scenery, taken during the historic voyage of H.M.S. Challenger in the late 19th century. Funded by the British Government for scientific purposes, the Challenger expedition is considered the first to carry an official photographer, documenting the wonders of the natural world as never before. The image, believed to have been taken around 1870, showcases the stunning landscape of the Azores or perhaps the Canary Islands, with their volcanic origins evident in the rugged, terraced mountain ranges. The expedition, which took place between 1872 and 1876, explored various European waters, including the Mediterranean, the North Atlantic, and the Arctic. As the sun casts a warm glow over the land, the terraces appear as intricate patterns of agriculture, a testament to the resilience and ingenuity of the people who have made their homes in these challenging environments. The photograph serves as a reminder of the spirit of adventure and discovery that characterized the 19th century, a time when Europeans sought to expand their knowledge of the world and its geography. Geomorphology, the scientific study of landforms and the processes that shape them, was one of the many fields advanced by the Challenger expedition. This photograph, with its vivid details and stunning composition, continues to inspire wonder and awe, offering a glimpse into the rich history of scientific exploration and discovery.
