EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Vilino Nair, the residence of Admiral Baron de Teffe von Hoonholtz in Petropolis, Brazil. Taken in 1914 by artist Edgar L Pattison, this image captures the grandeur and elegance of this historic building. The subject of the photograph, Antonio Luis von Hoonholtz, was a man of many talents. A nobleman, diplomat, geographer, politician, and Brazilian writer, he left an indelible mark on his country's history. As an admiral in the Brazilian Navy and father to Nair de Tefe von Hoonholtz - who would later become Brazil's first lady as the wife of Marshal Hermes da Fonseca - Antonio Luis held a prominent position within society. The photo is featured in Alured Gray Bell's book "The Beautiful Rio De Janeiro" published by William Heinemann in London in 1914. It offers viewers a glimpse into early 20th-century Brazil with its striking architecture and picturesque surroundings. With its white facade adorned with railings and surrounded by lush greenery along a serene avenue, Vilino Nair exudes charm and sophistication. This print serves as both a testament to architectural beauty and a historical artifact that transports us back to a time when Petropolis was at its zenith. Thanks to Heritage Images for preserving this remarkable piece of history for future generations to appreciate.
