EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent colonial architecture of Vietnam, specifically the Hall of the Municipal Theatre in Hanoi. Designed by architect Francois Lagisquet and constructed between 1900 and 1914, this architectural masterpiece was officially inaugurated in 1911. Inspired by the iconic Palais Garnier in Paris, France, Lagisquet seamlessly blended French influences with Vietnamese aesthetics to create a truly unique structure. The photograph, skillfully captured by Leonard de Selva, beautifully captures the exterior view of this grand building. The image allows us to appreciate its intricate details and impressive scale against the backdrop of Hanoi's cityscape. As we delve into this visual narrative, we are transported back to a time when Vietnam was under colonial rule. This architectural gem stands as a testament to that era and serves as a reminder of Vietnam's complex history with colonialism. Leonard de Selva's expert photography highlights every aspect of this remarkable structure – from its elegant facade adorned with ornate carvings to its majestic domed roof. Through his lens, we can almost hear echoes of opera performances that once graced its halls. This print not only celebrates the beauty and craftsmanship behind colonial architecture but also invites viewers to reflect on how historical influences shape our present-day landscapes. It is an exquisite piece that encapsulates both artistry and history within one frame.
