EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Construccao de um Estrada de Rodagem (S. Bernardo), 1895" takes us back to the late 19th century in Brazil. The artist behind this remarkable piece is Axel Frick, who beautifully captures a moment of road construction in Sao Paulo. In this historic image, we see a group of hardworking men laboring under the open sky amidst a lush woodland backdrop. They are dedicatedly building what will become an essential avenue for transportation in the country. With shovels and tools in hand, these skilled workers epitomize dedication and determination as they shape the future of their community. The composition offers a unique perspective on both the physicality of their job and the vastness of their surroundings. The horizon stretches endlessly before them, symbolizing endless possibilities for progress and development. Gustavo Koenigswald's inclusion of this photograph in his book "Sao Paulo" speaks volumes about its historical significance. It serves as a testament to Brazil's growth during that era while highlighting the importance placed on infrastructure and connectivity. As we admire this monochrome masterpiece by Axel Frick, it reminds us not only of our past but also how far we have come today. This print carries with it an air of nostalgia and appreciation for those who worked tirelessly to build roads that connect people from all walks of life across time and space.
