EDITORS COMMENTS
The futuristic Fiat Tagliero Building stands as a testament to architectural brilliance in the heart of Asmara, Eritrea. This iconic structure, captured beautifully in this print by Andrew McConnell/Robert Harding, showcases the unique blend of modernity and heritage that defines this African city. Designed by Italian architect Giuseppe Pettazzi in 1938, the building's striking aerodynamic form resembles an airplane ready for takeoff. Its bold lines and sleek curves make it a true marvel of engineering even today. The Fiat Tagliero Building was originally constructed as a service station for Fiat vehicles but has since become an emblematic landmark of Asmara's rich history. The vibrant colors captured in this photograph highlight the building's stunning exterior against the backdrop of Asmara's bustling streets. It serves as a reminder of how architecture can shape and define a cityscape. Asmara itself is known for its well-preserved colonial-era buildings and has earned recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The capital city exudes charm with its wide boulevards, art deco facades, and lively atmosphere. This image invites viewers to embark on their own journey through time and space, immersing themselves in Eritrea's cultural tapestry while admiring one of Africa's most remarkable architectural gems.
