EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and symbolism of Havana's Centro Habana district. Standing proudly under the majestic cupola of the National Capitol building is the Salon de Los Pasos Perdidos bronze Statue of the Republic, a masterpiece by renowned sculptor Angelo Zanelli. This Roman-inspired sculpture serves as a powerful representation of Cuba's political history and government. The room in which this magnificent artwork resides exudes an air of elegance and sophistication, with its classic design and architectural beauty. As you gaze at this photograph, you can't help but be transported back in time to an era when art, culture, and civilization thrived within these walls. At a towering height of 17 meters (56 feet) and weighing an impressive 49 tons, this mythic guardian of virtue and work stands tall as a testament to Cuba's rich heritage. Its presence evokes feelings of awe and reverence among tourists who visit Havana seeking glimpses into its storied past. Beyond its historical significance, this image also hints at darker undertones associated with Cuban history—the influence of organized crime during certain periods. However, amidst these complexities lies an undeniable allure that draws visitors from all corners of the globe to experience firsthand the magic that emanates from every corner of Havana. Photographer Athanasios Papadopoulos skillfully captures both the magnificence and intrigue surrounding this iconic statue through his lens—a true testament to his artistic talent.
