High-contrast black-and-white photograph looking down a narrow colonial street in Havana. Tall shuttered facades and wrought-iron balconies recede in steep perspective, deep shadows pooling beneath overhanging eaves while bright sun rakes the opposite wall, revealing weathered paint and stonework in crisp gradations of grey. The shaded depth draws the eye toward a luminous opening at the far end of the street.
