EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling city of Asuncion, Paraguay in 1895. The image showcases a vibrant street scene, capturing the essence of this South American capital during the late 19th century. The architectural beauty of the buildings is highlighted, with their intricate details and timeless charm. In the foreground stands a distinguished man, exuding an air of importance as he gazes towards the camera. He is surrounded by telegraph poles and wires, symbolizing the advancements in communications that were taking place at that time. Tramlines run alongside him, indicating a well-connected transportation system within this thriving city. The photograph offers a glimpse into daily life in Asuncion during this era. People can be seen going about their business on both sides of the street - men engaged in conversation or walking purposefully along its lanes while others observe from balconies above. As we delve into this monochrome masterpiece captured by Elisee Reclus for his publication "The Universal Geography" we are transported to a different time and place. It serves as a reminder of how cities evolve over centuries but still retain elements that make them unique and special. This print truly encapsulates not only Asuncion's past but also its rich history as it continues to grow and flourish today.
