This photograph, taken circa 1920, transports us back in time to the picturesque district of Puerta de Tierra in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico. Nestled among the vibrant colors and rich history of this Caribbean island, we find a serene scene of architectural beauty. In the foreground, the private secondary schools of Puerta de Tierra stand proudly, their arches framing the entrance to the district. The schools, a symbol of education and progress, were a testament to the community's commitment to providing quality education to its residents. In the background, the Church of San Agustin, with its distinctive red-tiled roof and ornate facade, watches over the scene. This beautiful church, founded in 1578, is one of the oldest and most historic structures in Old San Juan. Its presence adds a sense of spiritual and cultural significance to the image. The North Atlantic Ocean, with its crystal-clear waters, can be seen in the distance, providing a striking contrast to the land. The tranquility of the scene is a reminder of the unique blend of European and Caribbean influences that make Puerto Rico such a fascinating and captivating destination. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, offering us a glimpse of life in Puerta de Tierra during the 1920s.
