EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print showcases two distinct yet intriguing travel views from the late 19th and early 20th centuries: Havana, Cuba, and Guatemala. The first image captures the Equestrian Statue of Antonio Maceo Grajales, a national hero in Cuba, located in Havana City. The bronze sculpture, completed in 1916 by Italian artist Domenico Boni, depicts Maceo on horseback, symbolizing his military leadership and unwavering patriotism. The inscription on the statue reads, "Capitan Famoso - Patriota Intachable - Caudillo de los Valientes - Su Valentia Igualo a su Lealtad - Julio 14, 1845 - Diciembre 7, 1896," which translates to "Famous captain - impeccable patriot - leader of the brave - his valour equal to his loyalty - July 14, 1845 - December 7, 1896." The second image transports us to an undisclosed location in Guatemala, where we find ourselves surrounded by the rich architecture of Central America. The black-and-white photograph, taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe between 1899 and 1926, highlights the country's unique heritage and the influence of European colonialism. Arnold Genthe's collection, held at the Library of Congress, features an extensive array of images documenting the people, places, and events of the 19th and 20th centuries. This photograph print is a testament to the power of visual storytelling, allowing us to explore the history and culture of Cuba and Guatemala in a captivating and immersive way.
