The street name tells you where this photograph was taken: Calle de Hospital, a thoroughfare in Santiago de Cuba, the island's second-largest city and a port on its southeastern coast. Dated around 1901, the print was made in the years after the Spanish-American War, when the United States administered Cuba and sanitation and public works were priorities. Such views of narrow colonial streets, with their walls, balconies, and rooflines, are useful records of how the city looked and functioned at the turn of the century.
