EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic heart of Mayaguez, Puerto Rico, circa 1905. The image showcases two iconic landmarks of the city: Plaza Colon and the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Candelaria. Plaza Colon, situated in the center of the frame, is dominated by the imposing statue of Christopher Columbus standing proudly atop his plinth. Columbus, the renowned explorer, is depicted with a hand extended as if in greeting, symbolizing the discovery and exploration of the New World. The plaza's steps invite visitors to sit and reflect on the rich history of the city and the island as a whole. In the background, the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Candelaria, also known as the Mayaguez Cathedral, towers over the plaza. Dedicated to the patron saint of Puerto Rico, the cathedral is a beautiful example of neoclassical architecture. Its intricate details, including ornate columns and intricate carvings, are a testament to the craftsmanship and artistic prowess of the time. The photograph's composition is further enhanced by the lush, green trees that frame the scene. Their vibrant foliage contrasts beautifully with the stone structures, adding a touch of natural beauty to the image. The North Atlantic Ocean, which lies just beyond the horizon, is not visible in the photograph, but its presence is felt through the salty breeze and the promise of adventure that comes with the vast expanse of water. This photograph is a snapshot of a bygone era, capturing the essence of Mayaguez in the early 1900s. It invites us to explore the history and culture of this fascinating island, and to appreciate the beauty and richness of its architectural heritage.
