EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "View of Guines, (1897), 1920s" takes us back in time to witness a significant event in Cuban history. The image showcases the aftermath of the revolutionaries' successful takeover of Guines on March 4,1897. As we delve into this snapshot from the History of Cuba, we are transported to a bustling street scene filled with people and horses. The composition captures the essence of daily life in early 20th century Cuba. Men can be seen standing outside buildings, observing their surroundings with an air of curiosity and determination. Horses stand patiently alongside horse-drawn vehicles that dominate the road, symbolizing traditional transportation methods during this era. The architecture reflects both colonial influences and local craftsmanship, giving us a glimpse into the country's rich cultural heritage. From barns to avenues, every element within this frame paints a vivid picture of rural Cuban life at that time. Preserved as a cigar card by Susini y La Corona Tabacalera Cubana for promotional purposes, this print holds historical significance beyond its aesthetic appeal. It serves as a reminder of pivotal moments like Adolfo Castillo and Colonel Clemente Fernandez's triumph over Guines – events that shaped Cuba's path towards independence. As we admire this remarkable piece from The Print Collector collection29 without commercial intentions or affiliations mentioned here let it transport us back to an era where revolution was brewing on these very streets - an invaluable testament to Cuba's past struggles
