EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Alinari, titled "PDC-A-004657-0035 Family album: passengers on the 'Horon Quay' in Buenos Aires" takes us back to the year 1905. The image captures a bustling scene at the pier, where people are eagerly awaiting transportation on the magnificent ship named "Horon Quay". The architecture of the quay stands tall and sturdy, reflecting its importance as a hub for naval and river transport. The structure exudes grandeur and showcases intricate details that were characteristic of that era. In this snapshot of history, we see a diverse crowd dressed in their finest attire. Men donning suits with hats stand alongside women adorned in elegant dresses and fashionable headpieces. Their clothing choices speak volumes about societal norms and fashion trends prevalent during this time. Each person's portrait tells a unique story - some appear excitedly engaged in conversation while others gaze out onto the water with anticipation. This gathering represents an association or society coming together for what seems like an important event or voyage. As we delve deeper into this photograph, it becomes evident that these individuals are passengers waiting to board the ship. The vessel itself is majestic, showcasing its impressive size against the backdrop of calm waters. Transportation by water was not only practical but also offered a sense of adventure during those times. It provided opportunities for exploration and connected communities across vast distances. While little is known about the author behind this remarkable piece, their ability to capture such vivid scenes speaks volumes about their talent as photographers. This print serves as a window into history – reminding us of how society operated more than a century ago when ships like "Horon Quay" played pivotal roles in connecting people and places around the world.
