Etymology

The term 'cropped' is derived from the verb 'crop,' which comes from the Old English word 'croppian,' meaning to cut or to harvest. Its usage in the context of image editing began in the late 20th century, coinciding with the development of digital photography and graphic design software. The concept of cropping has roots in farming and gardening, where 'crop' referred to the process of harvesting plants. As technology evolved, the term found a new application in visual media, revolutionizing how we perceive and edit images. The rise of social media platforms in the 21st century further popularized the practice of cropping in photography, leading to its common usage in both professional and casual environments.
