EDITORS COMMENTS
Calle del Gallo, Santiago, Cuba: A Glimpse into the Past (c.1900) Step back in time with this photograph of Calle del Gallo, a historic street in the heart of Santiago de Cuba, Cuba. Dating back to the late 19th century, this image offers a rare and enchanting glimpse into the rich cultural heritage and architectural beauty of this vibrant city. The photograph, captured in the 1880s or 1890s, showcases the eclectic mix of structures that once lined the streets of Santiago during the early 20th century. The buildings, a testament to the city's diverse history, display a unique blend of European and Caribbean influences, with ornate facades, wrought-iron balconies, and colorful doors. The street, named Calle del Gallo, or Rooster Street, is a bustling thoroughfare that has long been a part of Santiago's rich tapestry. In this photograph, we see horse-drawn carriages and people going about their daily business, adding to the authenticity and charm of the scene. As you explore this vintage image, you can almost hear the sounds of the city - the clatter of hooves on the cobblestones, the chatter of locals, and the distant call of a rooster. The Calle del Gallo photograph is not only a beautiful work of art but also a valuable historical document, offering a unique window into the past and the traditions of Cuba during the 19th century.
