EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Yamil Lage, we are transported to the vibrant streets of Havana, Cuba. The image showcases a powerful juxtaposition between the past and present as an old classic car gracefully glides past a larger-than-life poster of Cuban former president Fidel Castro. The poster boldly reads "Socialism or Death" serving as a constant reminder of the country's political history. The vintage automobile, with its elegant curves and timeless charm, stands as a symbol of resilience in the face of time. It represents not only transportation but also embodies Cuba's enduring spirit amidst economic challenges and political changes. As it navigates through bustling streets, it becomes apparent that these cars have become an integral part of Cuban culture. The presence of Castro's effigy on the poster adds another layer to this thought-provoking composition. It serves as a testament to his lasting influence over Cuban society even after his passing in 2016. Whether revered or criticized, Castro remains an indelible figure who shaped Cuba's destiny for decades. Yamil Lage skillfully captures this scene with impeccable timing and framing, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in Havana's unique atmosphere. Through his lens, he invites us to reflect upon themes such as politics, identity, and perseverance while marveling at the beauty found within everyday street scenes. This AFP photograph is not just an ordinary snapshot; it encapsulates both historical significance and artistic brilliance that will undoubtedly captivate anyone who gazes upon it.
