EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Convento da Luz, 1895" takes us back to a bygone era in Brazil. The artist behind this masterpiece is Paulo Kowalsky, who skillfully captures the essence of Sao Paulo's urban landscape in the late 19th century. The image showcases the Convento da Luz, a magnificent religious structure that stands tall against the backdrop of bustling streets. Its architectural beauty is highlighted by its arched entrance and intricate wall details. A street lamp illuminates the scene, casting a soft glow on the road below. Transportation plays a significant role in this snapshot of history as we see a donkey-drawn cart passing through the lane. This mode of transport was common during that time and adds an authentic touch to the composition. The monochrome aesthetic enhances the historic charm of this photograph, transporting viewers to a different era filled with simplicity and serenity. It serves as a reminder of Brazil's rich cultural heritage and religious traditions. As we admire this print from Gustavo Koenigswald's book "Sao Paulo" we are reminded of how much our world has evolved over time while appreciating timeless treasures like Convento da Luz that continue to stand strong amidst modernization.
