EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Attack on a fort, January 1897" takes us back to a significant moment in Cuban history. Captured around 1910 as part of the History of Cuba series by Geografico Universal, this cigar card from Susini y La Corona Cigarettes showcases the intense political events that unfolded during the late 19th century. The image transports us to an era marked by conflict and struggle for independence. The monochrome composition evokes a sense of gravity and tension as we witness a battle scene unfold before our eyes. The fort stands tall against the backdrop, symbolizing Spanish colonial power while also serving as a target for revolutionaries fighting for their country's freedom. As we delve into this historical snapshot, it becomes evident that this is no ordinary depiction of war; it represents an entire nation's fight for self-determination. This print serves as a reminder of the courage and resilience displayed by Cubans during their war of independence against Spanish rule. Preserved through time, this photograph allows us to reflect upon Cuba's rich heritage and its tumultuous journey towards sovereignty. It encapsulates not only a specific event but also embodies larger concepts such as patriotism, sacrifice, and determination – elements that shaped Cuba's identity throughout the 20th century. Through its powerful imagery and historical significance, this print invites viewers to explore the complex tapestry woven by politics and warfare in Cuba at the turn of the century.
