EDITORS COMMENTS
Guatemala City, Guatemala, 1911: A Vibrant Street Scene This evocative photograph, titled 'Guatemala - Street Scene, Guatemala City, 1911,' captures the bustling energy of Guatemala City during the early 20th century. Taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio, this image offers a glimpse into the daily life of this Central American capital city. The photograph features a busy street lined with various shops and buildings. On the left, a horse-drawn vehicle passes by, its occupants engrossed in conversation. Pedestrians, dressed in turn-of-the-century attire, navigate the cobblestone road, some carrying bundles or chatting with neighbors. Among the businesses visible in this scene are 'Peluqueria Berlinesa' and 'Oficina Tecnica.' The former, a hairdresser, is identified by the barber pole outside, while the latter, a technical workshop, is marked by machinery visible through its open doors. These establishments, along with the other shops, contribute to the city's thriving commercial sector. This photograph, part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, showcases the rich heritage of Guatemala and Latin America during the 1910s. The image invites us to explore the history of this vibrant city and the people who called it home.
