EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases the magnificent Castillo del Morro in Habana, Cuba. Taken by renowned photographer William Henry Jackson in 1900, this image captures the grandeur and historical significance of this iconic fortification. Castillo del Morro stands proudly on a rocky promontory overlooking the entrance to Havana Bay. Its imposing walls and strategic location have played a crucial role in protecting the city for centuries. The fort's architecture is a testament to Spanish colonial design, with its sturdy stone walls and intricate details. In this photograph, Jackson expertly captures the fort's commanding presence against a backdrop of clear blue skies and shimmering waters. The play of light and shadow adds depth to every detail, highlighting both the strength and beauty of this architectural marvel. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an era when forts like Castillo del Morro were vital defensive structures guarding valuable ports. It serves as a reminder of Cuba's rich history and its enduring cultural heritage. This print is not just an exquisite piece of art but also an important historical document that allows us to appreciate the craftsmanship involved in constructing such formidable forts. Whether displayed at home or in public spaces, it invites viewers to immerse themselves in Cuban history while admiring Jackson's exceptional talent behind capturing moments frozen forever through his lens.
