EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of Riga, Latvia's largest city, as depicted in this winter scene from 1910. The photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, with horse-drawn sleighs gliding through the snow-covered streets, and the city's iconic Art Nouveau architecture standing proudly against the frosty backdrop. At the heart of the scene, the sprawling Dome Square is a bustling hub of activity. The magnificent Riga Cathedral, with its twin spires reaching towards the heavens, dominates the skyline, casting long, intricate shadows across the ice-covered cobblestones. To the left, the ornate tower of the House of the Blackheads, a symbol of Riga's Hanseatic past, stands tall and proud. In the foreground, a vintage tram makes its way through the snow, its steamy breath adding to the wintery atmosphere. The trams were an essential part of Riga's transportation network, connecting the city's various districts and bringing people together. As the sun begins to set, the square is bathed in a soft, ethereal glow, casting a magical spell over the city. The wintery scene is a testament to the resilience and beauty of Riga and its people, who continue to embrace the changing seasons with open arms. This photograph, taken over a century ago, offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of Riga, Latvia, and serves as a reminder of the timeless allure of this enchanting city.
