EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "AVQ-A-000044-0033" takes us on a mesmerizing journey back in time to the early 20th century. The image showcases an animated view of the Piazza Matteotti, formerly known as Piazza del Comune, located in the enchanting town of Tarquinia. The scene captured here is truly remarkable; it transports us to a bygone era where horse-drawn carriages gracefully traverse the cobblestone streets. The bustling square is adorned with charming buildings that exude timeless elegance and architectural grandeur. Dating back even further than this photograph's creation date of around 1900, we learn that the artwork itself was crafted approximately two centuries prior in 1724. This adds another layer of historical significance to this already captivating piece. One cannot help but be drawn to a fascinating detail within this composition – a coat of arms or heraldic ornament proudly displayed against one of the majestic structures. While its exact meaning remains unknown due to its unidentified authorship, it undoubtedly represents an emblematic symbol deeply rooted in Tarquinia's rich history and heritage. As we immerse ourselves in this evocative snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of how photography has the power to transport us across generations and evoke emotions tied closely to our collective pasts. Alinari has once again curated a visual masterpiece that invites viewers into an extraordinary world filled with nostalgia and wonderment. Through their lens, they have preserved not only a moment but also an entire era for future generations to appreciate and cherish.
