EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, offering a glimpse into the bustling streets of the new city of Christopher Columbus in Colon, Panama. The image showcases workers' housing lining the street, providing an intriguing insight into the lives of those who played a crucial role in building one of the world's most remarkable engineering feats - the Panama Canal. The engraving, originally featured in "Le Monde Illustre" in 1884, captures a moment frozen in time. It transports us to an era when progress was transforming this Central American city into a hub of activity and opportunity. The unknown artist skillfully portrays both architectural details and human presence within this snapshot of history. As we observe this scene from over a century ago, we can't help but marvel at how far we have come since then. The Panama Canal remains an iconic symbol of human ingenuity and determination. Its construction not only connected two oceans but also opened up new possibilities for global trade and travel. Through Stefano Bianchetti's lens, this print invites us to reflect on our shared past while appreciating the immense efforts that went into shaping our present-day world. It serves as a reminder that every great achievement is built upon countless individual stories like those depicted here - stories often forgotten or overlooked amidst grand narratives. This artwork reminds us to cherish these glimpses into history and honor all those who contributed their labor and expertise towards creating such monumental landmarks as the Panama Canal.
