EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Santiago, the bustling capital of Chile in 1846. The cityscape is beautifully captured from an aerial perspective, showcasing its strategic location on the Mapocho River with the majestic Andes Mountains serving as a breathtaking backdrop. The engraving highlights the architectural charm of Santiago during this era. A prominent church stands tall amidst a sea of rooftops, symbolizing the religious significance that played a central role in Chilean society. The fortification positioned strategically in the middle of the cityscape serves as a reminder of historical conflicts and defenses against potential threats. The image transports us to a bygone era where life moved at a slower pace compared to today's modern metropolis. It invites us to imagine what it was like for residents who walked these streets centuries ago, admiring their surroundings while going about their daily lives. This print captures not only the physical beauty but also evokes curiosity about Santiago's rich history and cultural heritage. It serves as a visual testament to how cities evolve over time while retaining elements that make them unique and cherished by generations past and present.
