EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by John W Banagan transports us to the vibrant streets of Lapa, Rio De Janeiro, Brazil. The image captures the essence of this historic neighborhood with its old run-down Portuguese buildings that exude a sense of colonial charm and decay. As we gaze upon the scene, our eyes are immediately drawn to a weathered street sign standing proudly amidst the architectural remnants. The multi-colored street sign stands as a testament to both Brazilian culture and Western influence in this bustling city. Its faded letters tell stories of days gone by, while also hinting at the abandonment that has befallen some parts of Lapa. The photographer's keen eye perfectly frames this moment in time, allowing us to appreciate every detail - from the arches above to the rotting structures below. With no people present in this image, we are left alone with our thoughts as we contemplate the rich history embedded within these walls. It is through photography like this that we can truly appreciate built structures and their ability to withstand both time and neglect. Banagan's skillful use of color brings life even to these decaying surroundings, reminding us that beauty can still be found amidst decay. This photograph serves as a reminder of how important it is for us to preserve our cultural heritage and cherish these architectural gems before they fade away completely.
