Vacation in Montgenèvre - A Playful Moment Captured in Time
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled AVQ-A-003633-0029, takes us back to the winter of 1915. It transports us to the picturesque slopes of Montgenèvre, where two skiers are striking funny poses for a photographer. The image beautifully captures their cheerfulness and happiness amidst the snowy landscape. The architectural elements surrounding them add depth to this scene. Pilasters and building decorations frame the skiers like guardians of their playful moment. The snow-covered mountains stand tall in the background, emphasizing both the meteorological and natural aspects of this breathtaking location. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this photograph offers insights into human psychology. The individuals' choice of attire – from hats to sweaters – reflects fashion trends of that era while also serving as protection against the cold weather. Their carefree poses reveal a psychological behavior rooted in joy and adventure. As we delve deeper into this image, it becomes clear that skiing was not just a sport but an integral part of their vacation experience. The presence of ski equipment such as rackets further emphasizes their passion for winter sports. Amidst all these details lies a cippus or memorial stone, perhaps symbolizing remembrance or marking a significant spot on their journey through Montgenèvre's vast landscape. While we may never know who exactly captured this remarkable moment on film due to its unidentified authorship by Alinari, one thing is certain – it encapsulates an everlasting memory frozen in time. This print invites us to reflect upon our own vacations and cherish those moments when we let go of inhibitions and embrace life's simple joys with loved ones by our side.
