This striking 1920s illustration features a thoroughly modern woman. She’s enjoying her fine Cuban cigarette, while an iridescent parrot perches beside her, curious about the curl of rising smoke.
Notice the woman’s elegant pose, the decorative patterns in the art, and those brilliant color blocks that make this pure Art Deco glamour.
The scene captures the sophisticated leisure of 1920s Havana, where tropical heat met international style.
Cuba’s exotic atmosphere allowed women many more freedoms than they might find back home — like smoking and flirting wherever they pleased.
Colorful vintage art, revived to reveal their bright and brilliant details. Created and sized in large formats, these images are able to define your space and special style.
This 1950s Cuba photograph works so well with my mid-century decor. And the image by the beach, with shadows of the woman and round table - just gorgeous.
Beautiful old photograph with nice watercolor paper. Reminds me of my trip to Cuba in 2017, but this photo shows Trinidad in another time. Great details.
We have gallery walls throughout our home, and this old Cuba color illustration gets more compliments than anything else. Everyone asks the story behind it.
