EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "AVQ-A-000044-0028" offers a mesmerizing animated view of the port of Civitavecchia during the feast of Saint Fermina. Dating back to around 1900, this postcard captures the essence of a vibrant event that intertwines various elements such as transportation, structure, architecture, and sea. The bustling port serves as a hub for both naval and river transportations, showcasing an intricate network of ships and small boats navigating through its waters. The architectural beauty of the port's structures adds an enchanting touch to the landscape (seascape), creating a picturesque backdrop for this lively occasion. As we delve deeper into the scene depicted in this photo print, we witness a fusion between society, politics, and Christian religion. A diverse crowd gathers onshore to partake in festivities organized by associations linked to Saint Fermina's celebration. Bystanders engage in social rapport while witnessing scenes filled with energy and excitement. Transportation becomes an integral part of this spectacle as ships dock at the port carrying passengers from far-flung places. The methodical movement by water highlights not only its practicality but also its aesthetic appeal against the backdrop of Civitavecchia's coastal charm. Although credited to an unidentified author from Alinari, it is evident that their keen eye captured more than just a moment frozen in time; they encapsulated history unfolding before our eyes. This remarkable print transcends commercial use or any specific company affiliation; instead, it immerses us in an immersive experience where culture meets tradition amidst breathtaking surroundings.
