EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, the vast expanse of the Armour Meat Refrigeration Plant in Berisso, Argentina, is illuminated by the moon and the faint glow of nearby lights. Located just outside Buenos Aires, this enormous facility was a marvel of engineering and innovation during the 1930s. The American Armour Company, a leading player in the meat industry, had established this plant to specialize in the refrigeration of meat for export and transportation purposes. The plant's massive size is evident in the photo, with its towering chimneys and expansive refrigeration units. The reflective surface of the water surrounding the plant creates a mirror-like effect, amplifying the scale of the structures and adding a sense of mystery and intrigue to the scene. The plant's cold and frozen environment is emphasized by the frosty conditions, with ice forming on the windows and the water's surface. The Armour Meat Refrigeration Plant in Berisso was a testament to the company's commitment to advancing meat preservation technology. The plant's refrigeration capabilities allowed the company to export large quantities of meat to markets in the United States and other parts of the world, contributing to Argentina's growing reputation as a major meat exporter. This photograph captures a moment in time when the intersection of technology, innovation, and global trade came together to shape the meat industry and the economy of Argentina. The photograph's nighttime setting adds to its intrigue, with the plant's structures casting long, ominous shadows and the moon casting a hauntingly beautiful light over the scene. The reflection of the plant in the water creates a sense of depth and dimension, making it an captivating and visually striking image.
