Daniel Louis Mundy's "Gezicht op een geiser in Lake Rotomahana" is a captivating black and white photograph depicting a geyser erupting in New Zealand's Lake Rotomahana. Taken between 1865 and 1875, the image captures the dramatic force of nature in a moment of heightened activity, with the steam rising majestically against the backdrop of a rugged landscape. Mundy, a prolific photographer known for his landscapes and portraits, skillfully captured the ephemeral beauty of this natural phenomenon, making this photograph an important document of a now lost landmark.
