1. Title: "A Bearded Man on the Rustic Bridge of Glen Helen, Isle of Man - Circa 1900" This hand-coloured lantern slide depicts a serene scene from the Isle of Man, specifically at Glen Helen. The image showcases a curved wooden footbridge, which arches gracefully over a small, crystal-clear river. The bridge, surrounded by lush trees, exudes a rustic charm, evoking a sense of tranquility and natural beauty. In the foreground, a bearded man stands on the bridge, adding a human element to the scene. His presence underscores the historical significance of the image, as he appears to be a local resident or perhaps a traveller, taking in the breathtaking scenery. The hand-coloured technique adds a layer of warmth and depth to the photograph, making the scene seem even more idyllic and inviting. This image, part of the Boswell collection, Box 365, Miscellaneous Part 1, is believed to have been captured around the turn of the 20th century. Glen Helen, located in the southeastern part of the Isle of Man, is renowned for its picturesque landscapes and is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike. The area is rich in history and natural beauty, making it an ideal subject for photographers and collectors of historical images. This charming snapshot from the past offers a glimpse into a bygone era, inviting us to imagine the stories of the people and places that once were.
