EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Kenya Colony's Nairobi in 1936. The image showcases Sixth Avenue, a vibrant thoroughfare that was at the heart of this colonial city. Standing tall and proud on this historic street is the Standard Bank of South Africa, its grand architecture commanding attention. The photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects the spirit of progress and development that characterized Nairobi during this era. As pedestrians navigate their way through busy sidewalks, horse-drawn carriages share space with early automobiles, painting a vivid picture of urban life in colonial East Africa. The Liszt Collection has meticulously preserved this remarkable piece of history, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance. Through this photo print, we are transported to an era when Kenya was known as "Kenya Colony" offering us a glimpse into its past identity. With every detail carefully captured by the lens, we can almost feel ourselves walking down Sixth Avenue alongside those who once called it home. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of how far Nairobi has come since then while honoring its rich heritage that continues to shape the city today.
