EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage postcard print captures the timeless beauty of La Forlaleza, the oldest building in Havana, Cuba. Taken after William Henry Jackson's iconic photograph from 1904, this image transports us back to a bygone era. The stunning architecture and intricate details of this historic landmark are showcased against the backdrop of a bustling street. The faded colors and aged texture add to its charm, evoking a sense of nostalgia for a simpler time. The vibrant facade stands out amidst the antique cars and utility poles that line the road. This postcard is not just an ordinary piece of paper; it represents a rich cultural heritage. La Forlaleza served as both protection and connection for the people of Havana. Its drawbridge symbolizes unity between different parts of the city while safeguarding its inhabitants from external threats. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost hear the sounds of horse-drawn carriages passing through its gates. This lithographic print showcases not only Cuban history but also American design arts at their finest. It is no wonder why such prints were highly sought after during that period. Today, it finds its place in museums like Lake County Museum as a testament to our shared past. As we admire this glimpse into Havana's architectural marvels, let us appreciate how art has preserved these moments for generations to come.
