EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished figure of His Excellency Marshal Hermes Rodrigues da Fonseca, taken in 1914 by artists Huebner & Amara. A prominent Brazilian soldier and politician, da Fonseca's commanding presence is evident as he sits confidently, dressed in his military uniform with a sword at his side. The monochrome composition adds to the timeless quality of this image, capturing a moment from early 20th-century Brazil. Da Fonseca's bald head and well-groomed handlebar mustache further accentuate his authoritative demeanor. With one hand on his hip, he exudes strength and power while embodying the essence of a statesman. This portrait not only reflects da Fonseca's role as a military leader but also hints at his involvement in politics. The photograph is part of Alured Gray Bell's book titled "The Beautiful Rio De Janeiro" published by William Heinemann in London during the same year. It serves as an important historical document that captures both the physical appearance and character of this influential Brazilian figure. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back to a time when war and political strife shaped nations. Through this print, we can appreciate the legacy left behind by Marshal Hermes Rodrigues da Fonseca – a man who dedicated himself to serving both country and people.
