EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of 'El Siglo XX' or 'The 20th Century' of Jose Finale, a large shop in the heart of Cardenas, Cuba. Circa 1910, the image transports us to the bustling streets of this historic port city. The shop, with its ornate signage and intricate architectural details, stands proudly on the pavement, inviting passersby to explore its wares. Men and boys, dressed in the fashion of the era, congregate in front of the shop, some deep in conversation, others admiring the array of goods displayed. A boy, perched on a bicycle, gazes intently at the shop's offerings. The bicycles, a common mode of transport during this period, are lined up along the sidewalk, adding to the scene's charm. The shop's frontage is a treasure trove of 1910s Cuban life. Optical items, phonographs, prayer books, and music books are among the various merchandise displayed. The shopkeeper, a man with a serious expression, stands at the entrance, perhaps ready to assist a customer. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the daily life of Cardenas during the early 1900s. The intricate details of the buildings, the vibrant colors of the shop's signage, and the lively interaction between the people in the image make it a captivating and evocative piece of Cuban history.
