EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of the Havana Riviera Hotel in Havana, Cuba, circa 1957. Steeped in history and elegance, this iconic hotel was inaugurated by none other than the legendary Ginger Rogers herself. The focal point of the hotel is undoubtedly the Copa Room, a lavish entertainment venue built by notorious mobster Meyer Lansky. As you step into the lobby, you are transported back to an era defined by opulence and sophistication. The lobby still proudly showcases elements that were typical of this time period. Adorning its walls are magnificent marble and bronze statues created by prominent Cuban sculptors who were originally commissioned for this very purpose. The vibrant streets of Havana can be seen through large windows as sunlight bathes the room with a warm glow. From this elevated view, one can appreciate both the architectural beauty of the building itself and also catch a glimpse of Cuba's coastal charm. With its colorful lanes and avenues lined with lush greenery, Havana exudes an undeniable charm that has captivated visitors for decades. This vintage photograph serves as a postcard from a bygone era - capturing not just a moment frozen in time but also showcasing how architecture seamlessly blends with nature in this enchanting city.
