EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the thriving ostrich raising industry in America during the early 20th century. Taken by an American photographer, this image showcases a private collection of farm buildings nestled within a picturesque countryside. The scene is bustling with activity as farmers tend to their livestock, specifically ostriches. The profitability of this industry is evident through the sheer number of these magnificent birds present in the frame. Ostriches were highly sought after for their plumes, which were used extensively in fashion and decorative arts during that time period. This photo serves as a historical testament to the significance of ostrich farming in America's agricultural landscape. The composition also highlights the natural beauty surrounding these farms, with wildlife animals such as sea birds adding to the charm of this rural setting. It provides a candid glimpse into an era when farming was not only about sustenance but also about meeting commercial demands. This image transports us back to 1910s California or Florida where ostrich raising thrived, showcasing how humans have long coexisted with animals for economic purposes. As we admire this piece from Fine Art Finder's collection by Bridgeman Images, it reminds us of our deep-rooted connection with nature and how industries have evolved over time while leaving behind traces of history captured through photography.
