Description
English:

Black and white photograph of a village near the ocean. The water is present on the bottom right of the photograph near the sloped, rocky shoreline to the left. Above the water level, a dirt road runs from the left side of the image towards the right. A large house sits furthest above the water on top of a rocky hill on the right side. Many people sit and stand along the road with their backs to the camera, looking towards the elevated land to the left of the road. The elevated land emits many clouds of smoke that turn dark when rising into the sky, drifting towards the right. At the base of the elevation, on the left side, a small house is ablaze. A few tall trees are present throughout the village. Handwriting along the bottom of the photograph reads, “The Village of Hoopuloa, 4:30 A.M. April 18, 1926.” “Copyright 1926 Tai Sing Loo” is written in the bottom left corner.

Mauna Loa eruption of ‘a‘ā lava flow causing destruction at Ho‘ōpūloa village, captured by Tai Sing Loo at 4:30AM on April 18, 1926.
