EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the coastal city of Antofagasta, Chile in 1895. As we gaze upon this enchanting scene from the quay, we are transported to a bygone era filled with charm and intrigue. The image is an engraving taken from "The Universal Geography with Illustrations and Maps" a renowned publication written by Elisee Reclus and published by Virtue & Co. Ltd. In this snapshot of history, we witness the bustling activity of road transport as a tram makes its way through the streets of Antofagasta. The smoke rising from its chimney adds an air of nostalgia to the atmosphere, reminding us of simpler times when trams were a common sight in cities around the world. Antofagasta's unique location on South America's continent gives it a distinct character that is captured beautifully in this monochrome print. Its coastal setting provides breathtaking views that blend harmoniously with urban life. As we delve into this piece, our imagination runs wild with thoughts about life in 19th century Chilean society. We can almost hear the sounds of bustling street vendors and feel the energy pulsating through every corner. This remarkable photograph serves as both a historical document and an artistic masterpiece, showcasing not only Antofagasta's rich transportation history but also paying homage to Elisee Reclus' exceptional work as an author and Virtue & Co. 's commitment to publishing quality materials for their readership.
