EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the beauty of San Martin Square in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Designed by renowned French landscape architect Carlos Thays and completed in 1896, this square holds historical significance as it is named after Jose de San Martin, Argentina's national hero. San Martin led the courageous fight against Spanish colonial rule in southern South America during the early 19th century. The image captures the grandeur of the square's architecture with its impressive buildings and a prominent dome that stands tall against the skyline. The surrounding landscape is meticulously planned with lush greenery and trees, reflecting Thays' expertise in creating harmonious outdoor spaces. As you gaze at this print, you are transported to a different era, where horse-drawn carriages once traversed these streets. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless charm to the scene, emphasizing both the architectural details and natural elements within this urban oasis. Buenos Aires comes alive through this photograph - a city rich in history and culture nestled within South America's vibrant continent. It serves as a reminder of how human ingenuity can shape landscapes into works of art while honoring those who fought for freedom. This stunning print from Mitchells Book Store allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also pay homage to Carlos Thays' visionary contribution to urban planning.
