EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed poet, Joaquin Lorenzo Luaces, in the 1920s. Born in Havana in 1826, Luaces left an indelible mark on Cuban literature with his renowned book of poems published in 1857. Among his notable works is the patriotic masterpiece "The Fall of the Misolongi" (1856), which exemplifies his deep love for his country. Another significant composition by Luaces is his ode to Warsaw (1863), a testament to his versatile talent. Tragically, just three days after receiving accolades for his powerful ode titled "The Job" this literary genius passed away in November 1867. The photograph captures Luaces' striking features - a distinguished face adorned with a proud mustache that embodies both intellect and patriotism. Displayed as a cigar card from the History of Cuba series by Geografico Universal and Propaganda de los Cigarros Susini y La Corona, Tabacalera Cubana, this image offers us a glimpse into not only Luaces' life but also into Cuban history during the late nineteenth century. As we admire this monochromatic portrait, we are reminded of the immense contributions made by individuals like Joaquin Lorenzo Luaces who shaped their nation's cultural heritage through their artistry and passion for literature.
