EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning colonial architecture in Vietnam, specifically focusing on the intricate details of the facade of the Louis Finot Museum. Named after the first director of the Ecole Francaise d'Extreme Orient, this architectural masterpiece was built in 1927 by renowned architect Ernest Hebrard. Once serving as a symbol of French influence and colonialism, this historic building has now been transformed into the Vietnam History Museum, preserving and showcasing the rich cultural heritage of Saigon. The photograph beautifully captures every nuance of its design, highlighting both its grandeur and delicate craftsmanship. The image transports viewers to a different era, evoking a sense of nostalgia for an Indochina that once was. It offers a glimpse into Vietnam's complex history and serves as a reminder of how architecture can be deeply intertwined with culture and identity. Leonard de Selva's expert photography skillfully captures not only the physical beauty but also conveys a deeper narrative about Vietnamese history and resilience. Through his lens, we are invited to appreciate both the aesthetic appeal and historical significance of this remarkable structure. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded that buildings like these hold stories within their walls – stories waiting to be discovered by those who take time to observe closely.
