The Working Horse

Monica Lucas

"This horse illustrates a popular mode of transportation in Trinidad, Cuba. A 50-year government ban on car sales on the island left the citizens in a technology time-warp, where cars are scarce and run-down. In 2010, Raul Castro lifted the ban, but the cheapest used cars are still too expensive for most to own."
