PhotoFeed Contest - Black & White Photography - 131 [ENG/ESP]
Hi friends, I hope you're having a lovely day. This post is my entry for the PhotoFeed Contest – Black & White Photography Round 131, and I hope you enjoy it.
Hola amigos, espero estén teniendo un muy lindo día. Esta entrada es mi participación para el PhotoFeed Contest – Black & White Photography Round 131, espero que les guste.
The building in the photo is El Gran Teatro de La Habana, currently home to the National Ballet of Cuba. It’s one of Havana’s most iconic buildings, located beside El Capitolio and very close to Paseo del Prado. The building dates back to 1838, although its construction took four years.
El edificio en la fotografía se trata de El Gran Teatro de La Habana, actual sede del Ballet Nacional de Cuba. Es un edificio muy emblemático de La Habana, situado a un costado de El Capitolio, muy cerca del Paseo del Prado. Es un edificio que data del año 1838, aunque su construcción tardó cuatro años.
For a long time, this building was considered the most luxurious and largest theater in all of the Americas. It features strong Baroque influences and is adorned with statues representing various aspects of life and society—such as music, theater, charity, and education—like the one seen in the photo.
Durante mucho tiempo, este edificio fue considerado el más lujoso y grande de todo el continente americano. Tiene muchas influencias del barroco y está adornado con estatuas que representan varios aspectos de la vida y la sociedad, como la música, el teatro, la caridad y la educación, como la que se ve en la foto.
It’s undoubtedly a beautiful and emblematic building, a reminder of what was once a country with space for an aesthetic that nourished the soul and went beyond mere functionality.
Sin duda, es un edificio bello y emblemático, un recordatorio de lo que fue un bello país con espacio para una estética que alimentaba más el alma e iba más allá de la simple funcionalidad.
