EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the breathtaking view from the lighthouse in Monrovia, Liberia, West Africa, circa 1920. Monrovia, the capital and main port city of Liberia, is nestled on the Atlantic Coast, where the Mesurado River meets the sea. In this image, Broad Street, the city's main thoroughfare, can be seen snaking along the right-hand side of the frame, leading to the heart of the bustling commercial district. The lighthouse, a beacon of safety and guidance for sailors navigating the treacherous waters off the Liberian coast, stands proudly in the foreground. Its whitewashed walls and tall, conical tower, adorned with intricate latticework, contrast sharply against the deep blue of the sea and sky. The water, dotted with the masts of sailing ships and the occasional fishing boat, stretches out to the horizon, merging with the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean. The buildings along Broad Street, a mix of colonial and traditional African architecture, add to the unique character of this vibrant coastal city. The palm trees lining the streets and the lush greenery that surrounds the city create a striking juxtaposition against the urban landscape. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of Monrovia during the 1920s, a time when the city was a thriving hub of commerce and trade in West Africa. The image invites us to imagine the sounds of the bustling port, the aroma of the sea, and the vibrant energy of this fascinating city.
