EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken around 1904, showcases the grandeur of City Hall in Matanzas, Cuba, as seen from the plaza. The image, created by an unknown photographer, captures the architectural beauty of the building, with its intricate details and ornate columns, standing proudly against the backdrop of lush palm trees and a clear blue sky. The city's vibrant energy is palpable in this scene, with a bustling walkway leading away from the camera, suggesting the constant flow of activity in the heart of Matanzas. The photograph, which measures 8 x 10 inches, is a testament to the rich history of Cuba and its architectural heritage. The building, now known as the Matanzas Provincial Museum, was designed by American architect Edwin H. Husher and completed in 1903. The dry plate negative process, a popular photographic technique of the time, was likely used to capture this image, resulting in the stunning contrast between the white and black tones. This photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of historical images of Cuba and the Americas. It offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when City Hall in Matanzas was a symbol of progress and prosperity in the city. The photograph is now part of the collections of the Library of Congress, a testament to its historical significance and enduring value.
