EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the breathtaking sunset over Morro Castle in Havana, Cuba, El, between the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The image, measuring 8 x 10 inches, showcases the iconic fortification standing proudly on the edge of the harbor, guarding the entrance to Havana Bay. Morro Castle, a military fortress and lighthouse, has been a significant part of Cuba's rich history since its construction in the late 16th century. The photograph, possibly taken using a dry plate or glass negative process, beautifully highlights the castle's intricate details and textures, from the moss-covered walls to the intricate designs adorning its towers. The setting sun casts a warm, golden glow over the castle, creating a serene and picturesque scene. The photograph is a testament to the beauty and heritage of Havana, Cuba's historic capital city. The image is part of the vast collection of the Library of Congress, a treasure trove of historical and cultural materials that document the world's rich and diverse human experience. Morro Castle, a symbol of Havana's resilience and strength, has stood the test of time, bearing witness to the city's vibrant history and the ever-changing tides of the Caribbean Sea. This photograph, captured by an unknown artist between 1880 and 1901, serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of Havana and its iconic landmarks.
