EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling Port of Cavite City in the Philippines during the early 19th century. Taken from "Le costume ancien et moderne" by Dr. Jules Ferrario, this engraving showcases a vibrant scene filled with human activity and various modes of transportation. In the foreground, a young girl stands on the harbor's edge, her gaze fixed on a majestic barque sailing into port. The boat glides gracefully through the water, guided by a tugboat that expertly maneuvers alongside it. This juxtaposition of old and new forms of transport symbolizes the evolving nature of trade and commerce in Cavite City. The image is rich with details, capturing not only the physical beauty of the harbor but also providing insight into daily life at that time. Women can be seen going about their tasks near small boats docked along the shore while men work diligently to unload cargo from larger vessels. Leonard de Selva's skillful reproduction preserves every intricate line and shading found in Ferrario's original artwork, allowing viewers to appreciate its historical significance. Through this print, we are transported back to an era where maritime trade played a vital role in shaping communities like Cavite City. As we admire this remarkable piece, let us reflect on how far transportation has come since then while appreciating its enduring importance in connecting people and cultures across vast distances.
