EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of a bygone era in the bustling streets of Lisbon, Portugal. Taken in 1988, the image showcases a woman sitting comfortably in a traditional shoe shine booth, her boots raised on a small stool as a shoeshine man meticulously polishes them. The warm, inviting glow of the booth's interior contrasts with the cool, shadowy exterior, drawing the viewer in and transporting them back in time. Shoe shine booths were once a common sight on the streets of Lisbon, offering a simple yet essential service to the city's residents and visitors alike. The small, cozy cabins provided a moment of respite from the hustle and bustle of the streets, allowing people to take a break and have their footwear restored to its former glory. The woman in the photograph wears a simple yet elegant outfit, her expression one of contentment and relaxation as she enjoys the attentions of the shoeshine man. The scene is one of quiet intimacy, a moment of connection between the two individuals that speaks to the personal and human side of urban life. The 1980s were a time of change and transition in Portugal, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the country's rich cultural heritage and the everyday experiences of its people. The use of natural light and the muted colors of the image add to its timeless quality, making it a beautiful and evocative addition to any collection of street photography or images of Portugal.
