EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Paddy Field near Gampola, c1890" by Alfred William Amandus Plate, offers a glimpse into the rural life of early 20th century Sri Lanka. The image showcases a serene landscape in the central province of Kandy District, where lush green paddy fields stretch as far as the eye can see. In this rustic setting, a group of women dressed in traditional attire are seen working diligently in the field. The monochrome composition adds an air of timelessness to this scene from another era. The simplicity and tranquility captured here evoke a sense of harmony between humans and nature. The thatched huts scattered across the vast expanse further emphasize the connection between people and their agricultural surroundings. As we delve into this piece from "The Hundred Best Views of Ceylon" we are transported back to a time when agriculture was at the heart of daily life in Sri Lanka. This photograph serves as both a historical document and an artistic representation that celebrates not only the beauty but also the significance of rice cultivation for these communities. Through Plate's lens, we gain insight into an important aspect of Asian culture while appreciating his skillful portrayal of landscapes. This print is undoubtedly an invaluable addition to any collection dedicated to preserving our rich heritage and understanding our past through art.
