EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Alexandre Meneghini, we are transported to the Corona tobacco factory in Havana, Cuba. The image showcases an employee meticulously rolling tobacco with incredible precision and skill. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the detailed craftsmanship involved in this traditional industry. The contrast between the vibrant red nail polish on the worker's hand and the earthy tones of the tobacco creates a visually striking composition. It is a creative use of color that adds a touch of modernity to an otherwise traditional setting. This photograph also sheds light on the manual labor required for cigar production, highlighting the dedication and expertise of individuals like this anonymous worker. Their hands tell stories of years spent perfecting their craft, as they delicately roll each leaf into a perfectly formed cigar. The view from above provides an interesting perspective, allowing us to see multiple employees engaged in their tasks within this bustling workshop. Despite being unrecognizable faces, they represent countless people who contribute to Cuba's rich history and reputation as one of the world's finest producers of cigars. With its attention to detail and thoughtful composition, this print serves as a reminder not only of Cuba's enduring tradition but also raises awareness about tobacco addiction - an issue that continues to affect millions worldwide.
