EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling intersection of Posthouse Street in Reykjavik, Iceland during the 1930s. The scene is dominated by two historic buildings, the Apotek Hotel and Restaurant on the left, and the Hotel Borg on the right. The Apotek Hotel and Restaurant, built in 1917, was once an apothecary and pharmacy before it was transformed into a hotel and dining establishment. Its distinctive red-tiled roof and ornate facade make it a standout among the surrounding buildings. Across the street, the Hotel Borg, constructed in 1930, is a grand, Art Deco-style structure that has long been a symbol of Reykjavik's sophistication and elegance. The photograph is filled with the sounds and energy of the city. People can be seen hurrying along the sidewalks, bundled up against the cool Icelandic air. Streetcars rumble by, adding to the sense of movement and activity. The intersection of Posthouse Street is a vibrant hub of commerce and community, a place where the past and present come together in a rich tapestry of history and culture. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when life moved at a different pace, and the simple pleasures of a warm meal and a comfortable bed were cherished. It is a reminder of the enduring charm and character of Reykjavik, a city that continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world.
