EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures the essence of Portobello, Panama in the early 20th century. The image showcases one of the colonial Spanish forts that once stood proudly in this historic town. With its weathered walls and crumbling ruins, it serves as a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of this Latin American gem. During the construction of the iconic Panama Canal, this particular fort was repurposed by the United States as a cemetery. It became a final resting place for those who lost their lives during this monumental engineering feat. This postcard from 1910 offers us a glimpse into that momentous era. The photograph itself is an exquisite example of turn-of-the-century American photography. Its sepia tones evoke nostalgia while highlighting intricate details within the frame. From afar, we can see how time has taken its toll on these ancient walls, yet they still stand tall amidst lush greenery. As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, we are transported back to an era when Panama was at the crossroads between two worlds - where Spanish colonial architecture met with modern industrialization. This print allows us to appreciate both the beauty and resilience found within Portobello's historical landscape.
