Cocospalm 1900 - 1905

"Cocospalm" is a sepia-toned photograph by Eugen Klein, taken between 1900 and 1905. The image captures a lush tropical landscape, featuring a grove of towering coconut palms, with a figure climbing one of the trees. The photograph, a small-format piece, showcases Klein's interest in capturing the natural world and its details, typical of his work. The artist's focus on the vertical lines of the palms and the perspective of the climbing figure creates a sense of depth and grandeur in the composition. The image exemplifies the popularity of exotic travel photography in the early 20th century.
