EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by ADALBERTO ROQUE from Agence France-Presse (AFP), we are transported to the vibrant streets of Havana, Cuba. The image showcases a unique juxtaposition between old and new as Cubans gather outside their houses, eagerly trying to catch a glimpse of the Chanel performance at the Prado promenade. The historical quarter serves as an enchanting backdrop for this momentous occasion, with its colorful buildings and charming architecture adding to the allure of the scene. As classic cars line the road, it becomes evident that time seems to have stood still in this part of Havana. The photograph not only captures the excitement and anticipation on people's faces but also highlights their resourcefulness in making sure they don't miss out on such a rare spectacle. Despite limited access or obstructed views from their homes, these determined individuals find creative ways to witness the Chanel performance firsthand. ADALBERTO ROQUE skillfully portrays both cultural richness and resilience through his lens. This snapshot encapsulates Cuba's indomitable spirit and unwavering passion for art and beauty amidst challenging circumstances. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded of how even simple moments can become extraordinary when shared within a community that cherishes its heritage while embracing modernity. It is an ode to Cuban ingenuity and an invitation for us all to appreciate life's fleeting yet precious experiences.
