EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in the city of Nuevitas, Cuba. Taken in the 1920s, it showcases an elevated view of the city's rooftops and buildings. The image holds significant historical value as it depicts the aftermath of two major events that shaped Nuevitas' past. In 1869, during the war of Yara, General Angel Castillo set fire to Nuevitas as part of his military strategy. This act is remembered for its impact on the Cuban War of Independence. Over five decades later, in April 1895, Colonel Francisco Varona led a group of forty men into the city but tragically perished in battle. The print provides a glimpse into this tumultuous period in Cuban history when revolutionaries fought for their country's independence from colonial powers. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by brave individuals like Varona and Castillo. As we observe this aerial view captured from above, one can't help but marvel at how far Cuba has come since those turbulent times. Today, Nuevitas stands tall with its rebuilt houses and bustling streets—a testament to resilience and progress. Preserved through time on this cigar card from "The History of Cuba" this photograph offers us a window into both local history and broader themes such as war, conflict, and national identity. It invites us to reflect upon our shared human experiences throughout different centuries while appreciating how far we have come as societies striving for
