EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scenic beauty and tranquility of Pasadena, California, USA, in the 1940s. The image focuses on the Colorado Street Bridge, an iconic landmark that spans the Arroyo Seco, a picturesque watercourse that winds its way through the city. The bridge, with its distinctive Art Deco design and elegant arches, is a testament to the engineering prowess of the time. In the foreground, the Hotel Vista Del Arroyo is prominently featured. Nestled along the banks of the Arroyo Seco, this charming hotel offers a serene retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life. The hotel's whitewashed walls and red-tiled roof blend harmoniously with the natural surroundings, creating a sense of harmony between man-made structures and the natural world. The photograph, taken in 1946, transports us back to a bygone era. The absence of modern vehicles and the simple attire of the people in the scene add to the nostalgic feel of the image. The calm waters of the Arroyo Seco, reflecting the clear blue sky, further enhance the peaceful ambiance of the scene. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of Pasadena's rich history and the enduring allure of its natural beauty. It invites us to take a moment to appreciate the simple pleasures of life and the timeless charm of a place that has remained unchanged through the decades.
