EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Where the old rub shoulders with the new" takes us back to San Antonio, Texas in 1927. The image beautifully captures a moment of contrast between tradition and progress. Standing tall in the background is the recently erected Medical Arts Building, symbolizing modernity and innovation. Its imposing presence seems to overshadow the iconic Alamo, a sacred site steeped in history. The composition of this remarkable picture highlights the clash between two different eras. It serves as a visual reminder of how rapidly society was evolving during that time period - an era caught between wars, where change was palpable. The monochrome tones add depth and intensity to every detail captured by the lens. As we gaze at this photograph from TopFoto. co. uk, we are transported into a world where old meets new; where tradition coexists with advancement. It prompts us to reflect on our own surroundings and how they have transformed over time. This image is not just about buildings or architecture; it encapsulates an entire epoch's spirit of progress juxtaposed against historical significance. It invites us to ponder on what has been lost or gained through these changes. In its simplicity lies its power – reminding us that even amidst rapid development, there will always be remnants of our past that deserve reverence and preservation for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
