EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Across Two Oceans, Sketches in Venezuela" takes us on a visual journey through the vibrant streets of South America. Created by William Heysham Overend and published in The Illustrated London News in 1888, this engraving offers a glimpse into the bustling markets and lively scenes of Venezuela. The image transports us to Puerto Cabello, Caracas, and Valencia as we witness the daily life of locals and immerse ourselves in their culture. A mule merchandise train dominates the foreground, showcasing the importance of trade and commerce in this region. Street scenes come alive with fruit stalls brimming with colorful produce while guards ensure security amidst the hustle and bustle. As our eyes wander further into the frame, we catch sight of wharves filled with ships from across two oceans - a testament to Venezuela's strategic location as a hub for international trade. In these busy ports lie opportunities for economic growth and exchange between nations. Amidst it all, one cannot ignore references to alcohol consumption prevalent throughout Latin America. From Bavarian beer to local brews enjoyed by residents seeking respite from their duties or simply indulging in leisurely moments. Through this remarkable piece of artistry captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back in time to experience an era when Venezuela was at its zenith – an enchanting blend of tradition meeting progress within its borders.
