EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a profound moment of solitude and penance in the serene surroundings of Gem Lake, Mount Abu, India. Taken in 1903 by Underwood & Underwood, this stereoscopic card transports us to a time when the world was still discovering the wonders of Asia. In this image, we see a hermit sitting cross-legged on the rocky shores of Gem Lake. With legs crossed and eyes closed in deep contemplation, he embodies the concept of solitude and spiritual devotion. The monochrome tones add an air of mystery to his presence as he engages in his sacred practice. Mount Abu's majestic mountains serve as a breathtaking backdrop for this scene, emphasizing the harmonious connection between man and nature. This remote location offers solace from worldly distractions, allowing individuals like our hermit to seek enlightenment through penance. The meticulous detail captured by Underwood & Underwood transports us back to early 20th century India - Hindoostan - where ancient traditions coexist with modernity. Through their expert use of stereoscopic photography, they bring depth and dimensionality to every element within this frame. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print from The Print Collector collection, we are reminded that even amidst bustling continents and busy lives, moments of introspection can be found if one seeks them out.
