This black-and-white photograph captures a scene of agricultural labor in the hills surrounding Port-au-Prince, Haiti. The image shows a worker using a traditional hand hoe to till the land, with mist rolling over the distant hills and the faint outline of a horse grazing in the background. The fog adds a quiet, almost ethereal quality to the scene, emphasizing the solitude and hard work of the laborer. This evocative image speaks to the timeless rhythm of life in the Haitian countryside, where agriculture remains an essential part of daily life. This print is available as a Fine Art Print on high-quality paper (Hahnemühle FineArt Baryta) and is produced by Whitewall. Erich Andres was born in Germany in 1905 and passed away in 1992. He began his career as a photographer in 1920 and was one of the first to use a Leica camera. Today, his work is exhibited in several museums, including the Civil War Museum in Salamanca, Spain, the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, Switzerland, and the Industrial Museum in Oberhausen, Germany. In 1951, Andres contributed to Edward Steichen's iconic exhibition "The Family of Man" at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
