Red Classic Car on Havana Street Cuba Color | Limited Edition of 10
Vintage Automobile Parked Along Colorful Havana Facades
Few places in the world are as visually recognizable as Havana. The combination of aging colonial architecture, pastel-colored buildings, wrought iron balconies, and beautifully preserved classic automobiles creates a scene that feels suspended between decades. In this photograph, a bright red vintage Chevrolet sits quietly along a narrow street lined with colorful facades, capturing the character of Cuba in a single frame.
What immediately drew me to this scene was the contrast between the automobile and its surroundings. The polished red bodywork reflects the warm afternoon light while the buildings beside it display layers of turquoise, pink, cream, and white. Decorative ironwork hangs above the street, adding texture and depth, while the long perspective down the roadway leads the eye naturally through the composition. Every element feels connected. The car belongs to the street, and the street belongs to Havana.
I photographed this image while exploring the city on foot. Walking through Havana is a completely different experience from seeing it through a vehicle window. The pace is slower, allowing details to reveal themselves gradually. Around nearly every corner, there is another classic car, another weathered doorway, or another building painted in colors that seem almost impossible under the Caribbean sun. This particular moment stood out because the light, the architecture, and the car aligned perfectly.
The photograph balances nostalgia with vibrant color. The automobile speaks to Cuba's automotive history, while the surrounding buildings reveal the daily life and culture that continue around it. It is an image that feels authentic rather than staged, documenting a scene exactly as it existed when I encountered it.
For collectors who appreciate travel photography, classic automobiles, urban scenes, or Cuban culture, this piece offers a strong visual focal point. The rich colors work especially well in living rooms, offices, studios, and spaces that benefit from a touch of warmth and character. The combination of architecture and transportation gives the image broad appeal without losing its sense of place.
I personally sign each limited-edition print, and each includes a certificate of authenticity. Prints are produced using archival pigment inks on professional archival materials to ensure long-term display quality and accurate color reproduction.

Limited Edition of 10
This photograph is released as a signed and numbered limited edition of only 10 prints in total across all available sizes combined—not 10 prints in each size.
Every size is drawn from the same edition. Whether the photograph is purchased as a small print or at the largest available size, it uses one of the 10 edition numbers.
I personally sign and number each print on the reverse, and every print is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity recording its title, dimensions, medium, edition number, and date of issue.
Once all 10 prints have been sold, the edition will be permanently closed. No additional numbered editions of the photograph will be produced in another size or format.
Premium Archival Fine Art Prints
I personally produce every photograph using archival pigment inks on premium archival paper with a subtle luster finish.
The paper provides rich tonal depth, excellent fine-detail reproduction, and a refined surface that reduces distracting glare under normal indoor lighting. It is especially well suited to both color and black-and-white photography.
Each photograph is sold as an unframed fine art print, allowing it to be framed according to the collector’s space and personal style.
Before a print leaves my studio, I carefully inspect it for color, tonal accuracy, surface quality, and overall presentation. Nothing is outsourced, and every finished print passes through my hands.
Worldwide Delivery Included
Every print is personally produced, inspected, signed, numbered, and carefully packaged by me at my studio in Haliburton, Ontario, Canada.
Worldwide delivery is included in the listed price, so there is no additional shipping charge added during checkout. I select an appropriate tracked delivery service based on the destination, print size, and current shipping requirements.
Delivery times vary by destination and may be affected by customs processing or circumstances beyond my control.
Because I also travel extensively to create new photographic work, studio dispatch may occasionally be delayed while I am away. When that happens, the print will be produced and shipped as soon as I return to the studio.
