EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Viaducto do Cha, 1895" showcases the architectural marvel that was the first viaduct built in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Created by artist Paulo Kowalsky, this image transports us back to a significant moment in the city's history. The viaduct itself stands tall and proud against the backdrop of a picturesque valley. Its iron facade exudes strength and elegance, reflecting the ingenuity of its French instigator, Jules Martin. This landmark bridge symbolizes not only transportation but also progress and innovation. Kowalsky's monochrome composition adds a timeless quality to this 19th-century scene. The absence of color allows us to focus on the intricate details of both the viaduct and its surroundings. The photographer skillfully captures the perspective from which it dominates Sao Paulo's landscape. As we gaze at this print, we are reminded of how architecture can shape a country's identity. The Viaducto do Cha represents Brazil's rich heritage while serving as a testament to human achievement in engineering and design. With every glance at this remarkable piece of artistry by Gustavo Koenigswald from his book "Sao Paulo" we are transported back in time to witness an era when visionaries like Jules Martin paved the way for progress in one of South America's most vibrant cities.
