Hi Dawn,
1963 – when the Tristan people arrived to their homes after 2 years in the UK after the eruption in 1963
dragging the longboat ashore – here
loads of luggage to take care of – here
More common ones
a normal schoolday (1979) for children inside the school – here
view of a typical Tristan (1974) home after reroofing from grassroof – here
the heart of Tristan da Cunha – the peak with its crater lake that very few (outside Tristan) has visited during all the years – here
This photographs has been taken by the Swedish artist Roland Svensson during his visits – credit him or www.sthelena.se – and has never been showned to others than Tristaneers and close family friends. During the past years I have been digitalizing all his images from Atlantic islands – Ascension – St Helena and especially Tristan da Cunha. More on Roland’s art can be found on www.sthelena.se or www.rolands-art.org
