Habana - Rina de Gallos. Cock Fight, 1918
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a vibrant moment in the bustling streets of Havana, Cuba during the early 20th century. This photo print, published by Edicion Jordi in 1918, showcases a popular and controversial sport - cockfighting. In this lively scene, a group of enthusiastic spectators gather around a makeshift fighting ring on a dusty city lane. Men and boys alike are drawn to the intense competition between two magnificent roosters locked in combat. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as bets are placed and emotions run high. The image reflects both the cultural significance and moral complexities surrounding cockfighting at that time. While it was considered an age-old tradition deeply rooted in Cuban society, there were growing concerns about animal cruelty associated with blood sports like these. Against the backdrop of colorful colonial architecture and bustling street life, this photograph offers us a glimpse into Havana's rich history and its people's diverse interests. It serves as a reminder of how sports can unite communities while also raising ethical questions. Preserved through time as a postcard-like stamp from Ciudad de la Habana, "Habana: Rina de Gallos" invites us to reflect on our relationship with animals and consider how our values have evolved since then.
