EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, captured between 1899 and 1926 by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe, showcases two distinctive architectural gems from the early 20th century: the Presidential Palace in Havana, Cuba, and an unidentified building in Guatemala. The Presidential Palace in Havana, Cuba, graces the left side of the image. Designed by Rodolfo Maruri and Paul Belau and inaugurated in 1920, this impressive structure served as the presidential residence until 1959. Its grandeur is evident in the intricate Baroque details adorning the façade, the majestic dome, and the proud Cuban flag flying high. On the right side of the image, an unidentified building in Guatemala captivates our attention. Although its exact location and historical significance remain a mystery, the building's unique architectural design, with its arched windows and red-tiled roof, adds to the visual allure of this photograph. This black-and-white image, part of the extensive Arnold Genthe Collection at the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the rich architectural heritage of Central America during the 1900s, 1910s, and 1920s. The nitrate negative, a standard technique of the era, adds to the timeless quality of this photograph, making it an essential addition to any collection of heritage art or travel-inspired decor.
