EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling activity at the Customs House and San Francisco Wharf in Havana, Cuba, circa 1915. The image transports us back in time to the vibrant and cosmopolitan atmosphere of the early 20th century. The Customs House, a grand and imposing building, stands proudly on the waterfront, its columns adorned with intricate carvings. It served as the primary point of entry for goods being imported and exported between Cuba and other countries, making it a hub of economic activity. Beside the Customs House, the San Francisco Wharf stretches out into the bay, lined with cobblestones and dotted with ships and boats. The wharf was a hive of activity, with cargo being unloaded from the vessels and transported to the Customs House for inspection. The photograph also reveals the diverse range of transportation methods in use at the time. Horse-drawn carts and automobiles can be seen on the wharf, reflecting the growing popularity of the automobile and the ongoing transition from horse-drawn transport to motorized vehicles. The cars, with their sleek designs and shiny surfaces, contrast sharply with the rough texture of the cobblestones and the rugged appearance of the ships and boats. The juxtaposition of these elements highlights the dynamic and ever-changing nature of the waterfront scene. Overall, this photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich history of Havana's Customs House and San Francisco Wharf during the 1910s, a time of economic prosperity and cultural exchange in Cuba.
