EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print takes us back to the bustling city of Barranquilla in Colombia during the 1940s. The image showcases a vibrant scene filled with colors and life, capturing the essence of this South American gem. In the foreground, we see a group of people leisurely strolling along the streets, their bright red and yellow attire adding pops of color to the scene. Sailing boats dotting the nearby river hint at Barranquilla's strong maritime industry and its close connection to water transportation. The painting-like quality of this lithograph adds an artistic touch to the photograph, emphasizing both its historical significance and aesthetic appeal. The lettering on display suggests that it may have been used for advertising or as a postcard during that era. Barranquilla itself is depicted as a thriving city, showcasing its growth and development in communication and commerce during this period. This snapshot provides us with a glimpse into everyday life in Colombia at that time – from its lively streets to its flourishing industries. As we admire this piece from Raul de la Espriella B. , we can't help but be transported back in time, appreciating not only the beauty captured within this print but also recognizing how far Barranquilla has come since then.
