EDITORS COMMENTS
Capturing the grandeur of colonial architecture in Vietnam, this print showcases the magnificent entrance of the Municipal Theatre of Hanoi. Built by renowned architect Francois Lagisquet between 1900 and 1914, and inaugurated in 1911, this architectural masterpiece draws inspiration from the iconic Palais Garnier. In the foreground stands the impressive Municipal Theatre with its intricate detailing and elegant design. The influence of French colonialism is evident in every aspect of its construction, reflecting a harmonious blend of European aesthetics with Vietnamese culture. As we gaze into the background, our eyes are drawn to another symbol of colonial influence - the department store owned by Debeaux brothers. This juxtaposition highlights both progress and cultural exchange during that era. Leonard de Selva's expert photography captures not only these remarkable structures but also provides us with a glimpse into early 20th-century Hanoi. The bustling cityscape serves as a backdrop to these architectural gems, showcasing Vietnam's rich history and heritage. This print is a testament to how architecture can transcend time and tell stories about different cultures coming together. It invites viewers to appreciate both the beauty of colonial architecture in Vietnam and reflect on its historical significance.
