EDITORS COMMENTS
Spain: Tarragona, Cathedral Cloisters (b/w photo) captures the timeless beauty of one of Spain's architectural gems. The monochromatic print, taken by renowned German photographer Kurt Hielscher in the 1920s, showcases the intricate details and serene atmosphere of the cloisters. The image transports us to Tarragona, a city steeped in history and located on Spain's northeastern coast. The cathedral cloisters depicted here are a testament to both Spanish craftsmanship and religious devotion. Every archway and column tells a story, inviting viewers to imagine themselves walking through this sacred space. Hielscher's expertise as an art photographer is evident in his composition and use of light. The black-and-white medium adds depth and texture to the photograph, emphasizing the play between shadows and highlights within the cloisters. This print was originally featured in Hielscher's book "Das Unbekannte Spanien" which aimed to showcase lesser-known aspects of Spanish culture, architecture, and landscape. It serves as a visual reminder that even amidst modernity, there are hidden corners where time seems to stand still. As we gaze upon this vintage photograph from our private collection today, we can't help but appreciate its historical significance as well as its artistic merit. It reminds us that photography has always been an important tool for capturing moments in time – preserving not only images but also memories for generations to come.
