EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Quarrying, a New England granite quarry, c1908," captures the raw power and industry of granite quarrying in New Hampshire during the early 20th century. The image, taken as a dry plate negative on glass, measures 8 x 10 inches and is part of the vast collection held at the Library of Congress. The scene unfolds in the picturesque landscape of New England, with the quarry located in an unidentified location in Concord, Merrimack County. The quarry's massive, weathered walls loom in the background, a testament to the enduring strength of the granite that has been extracted from the earth. In the foreground, workers can be seen operating heavy machinery, likely used for splitting and transporting the large blocks of granite. Dust and debris cover the ground, a reminder of the labor-intensive process that goes into transforming raw stone into a valuable building material. The photograph offers a glimpse into the rich industrial heritage of New Hampshire and the United States as a whole. It is a poignant reminder of the human ingenuity and determination required to extract natural resources from the earth and shape them into something useful. The image, with its stark contrasts and intricate details, also serves as a beautiful work of art in its own right, showcasing the timeless beauty of New England's natural landscapes and the industry that has shaped them over the years. Despite the unknown creator of this photograph, the image remains an important piece of American history, providing a window into the past and offering a glimpse into the lives of the workers who toiled in the quarry over a century ago.
