EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant essence of Havana, Cuba in the 1950s. Against a backdrop of clear blue skies and towering palm trees, a juxtaposition of transportation methods can be seen passing by the iconic Capitolio building in central Havana. A vintage 1950s car, showcasing the charm and elegance of this era, shares the road with a rickshaw - an emblematic symbol of Cuban culture. The image exudes a sense of nostalgia as it transports us back to a time when these contrasting modes of transport coexisted on Havana's streets. The architectural grandeur of the Capitolio stands tall in the background, its dome reaching for the heavens while providing shade to those below. As morning sunlight bathes everything in its warm glow, people go about their daily routines against this picturesque urban landscape. The scene is alive with energy and movement; cars overtaking bicycles, pedestrians crossing intersections, all contributing to the bustling rhythm that defines this metropolis. Ellen Rooney/Robert Harding's skillful photography captures not only a moment frozen in time but also tells a story about Cuba's rich history and cultural heritage. This image serves as an invitation for viewers to immerse themselves in Havana's unique atmosphere - where tradition meets modernity under sunny Caribbean skies.
