Gezicht op de Pink Terraces langs Lake Rotomahana c. 1865 - 1875

"Gezicht op de Pink Terraces langs Lake Rotomahana" (View of the Pink Terraces along Lake Rotomahana), a black and white photograph by New Zealand photographer Daniel Louis Mundy, captures a striking view of the famous Pink and White Terraces. These natural wonders, formed by geothermal activity, were a major tourist attraction in the 19th century until their destruction by the eruption of Mount Tarawera in 1886. Mundy's photograph, created sometime between 1865 and 1875, showcases the breathtaking beauty of this now lost natural wonder.
