EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Largo da Se, 1895" takes us back in time to the heart of Sao Paulo, Brazil. The artist behind this masterpiece is Oscar Ernheim, who beautifully captures the essence of a bustling cityscape in the late 19th century. The image showcases Praca da Se, originally known as Largo da Se, which holds great historical significance as the central point of Sao Paulo. It serves as a reference point from where all roads passing through the city are measured. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a vibrant scene filled with people going about their daily lives. Men can be seen walking alongside horses on cobblestone streets while carrying various items on their heads. This unique mode of transportation adds an intriguing touch to the composition and hints at a bygone era when horse-drawn vehicles were commonplace. The architectural beauty surrounding Praca da Se also commands attention. The grand facades of buildings create an impressive backdrop for this lively town square. It's fascinating to observe how much has changed over the years while still appreciating the timeless charm that remains intact. Oscar Ernheim's remarkable talent allows us to step into history and experience life in early 20th-century Brazil through his lens. This print is not just a visual delight but also serves as a valuable artifact that preserves moments from our past for generations to come.
