EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by the renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe in the 1920s, showcases two distinct and vibrant travel destinations: Havana, Cuba, and Guatemala. The image begins with a breathtaking view of the Presidential Palace in Havana, Cuba. Designed by Rodolfo Maruri and Paul Belau and inaugurated in 1920, this Neo-Classical architectural masterpiece served as the presidential residence until the Cuban Revolution in 1959. Its impressive Baroque dome and intricate details are on full display in this image, captured using a nitrate negative. The second half of the photograph transports us to an exotic location in Central America, revealing a colorful Guatemalan landscape. Although the specific site is not identified, the image showcases the rich heritage and diverse beauty of this Central American country. From the lush greenery and rolling hills to the traditional buildings and local people, this photograph encapsulates the allure and intrigue of travel during the 1920s. Arnold Genthe's Travel Views of Cuba and Guatemala, 1920s, is a captivating collection of images that not only showcases the architectural and natural wonders of these countries but also transports us back in time to an era of exploration and discovery. This photograph, now part of the Heritage Art Collection at the Library of Congress, invites us to appreciate the world's diverse beauty and history.
