EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Spain: Potes" takes us back to the 1920s, a time when Europe was undergoing significant changes. The image, captured by renowned German photographer Kurt Hielscher, showcases the picturesque town of Potes in Spain. The scene is beautifully composed, highlighting the architectural charm and natural beauty of this Spanish gem. Potes appears untouched by modernity, with its traditional buildings standing proudly against a backdrop of rugged mountains. It's as if time has stood still in this enchanting corner of Spain. Hielscher's attention to detail is evident in every element of the photograph. From the intricate stonework on the buildings to the play of light and shadow on cobblestone streets, he masterfully captures both the grandeur and intimacy of Potes. This print was originally published as an illustration for Hielscher's book "Das Unbekannte Spanien" which explored various aspects of Spanish culture including architecture, landscapes, and daily life. The gravure printing technique used adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing its artistic appeal. As we gaze upon this evocative snapshot from history, we are transported not only to early 20th century Spain but also into Hielscher's world as an artist capturing moments that would otherwise be forgotten. This photograph serves as a testament to his skillful eye and dedication to preserving cultural heritage through his lens.
