Paseo De Marti (circa 1960) - A Glimpse into the Divided Soul of Havana
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the vibrant streets of Havana in the 1960s. The Paseo de Marti, formerly known as Prado Boulevard, stands as a poignant symbol of division between old and modern Havana. Serving as both a physical and metaphorical line, this iconic boulevard separates two contrasting worlds. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a city caught between tradition and progress. The absence of people allows us to focus on the architectural beauty that lines both sides of the street. On one side lies the charm of old Havana with its colonial buildings adorned with intricate balconies and ornate facades. These structures whisper tales from another era, preserving Cuba's rich history. On the other side awaits modernity - sleeker buildings rising towards the sky like beacons of change. This visual dichotomy encapsulates Cuba's struggle for identity during an era marked by political upheaval. The image's monochromatic palette adds an air of nostalgia while emphasizing contrasts: light versus shadow, past versus present. It invites viewers to reflect upon how societies evolve over time while grappling with their cultural heritage. As we gaze at this archival piece captured by Three Lions/Getty Images, we are transported to a moment where history meets contemporary aspirations—a testament to Latin America's complex tapestry woven through arts, culture, and entertainment.
