EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a timeless piece of artistry and craftsmanship from the early 20th century. Displayed in vibrant colors, these cloth dolls of the Three Kings don exquisite Oriental costumes, transporting us back to an era when toys were not just playthings but works of art. Created in the 1920s by the renowned Italian firm of Lenci, these dolls are a testament to their mastery in toy-making. Each doll is meticulously crafted with delicate fabrics and intricate details that bring them to life. The multicolored costumes reflect the rich cultural heritage and exoticism associated with Oriental aesthetics during that period. The composition of this photograph beautifully showcases these remarkable dolls as they stand side by side, emanating an air of regality and grace. Their presence evokes a sense of wonderment, reminding us how toys can transcend mere entertainment and become cherished objects imbued with history and culture. Although captured through the lens in more recent times (around 1980-1990), this image transports us back to their original creation date between 1925-1926. It serves as a visual bridge connecting past generations with our present fascination for vintage treasures. Photographer Graziella Pellicci has skillfully framed this artwork, ensuring every detail is highlighted while preserving its authenticity. Through her lens, we are invited into a world where imagination knows no bounds – where dolls transform into characters from distant lands and stories unfold before our eyes. This photograph stands as both a tribute to Lenci's artistic legacy and a reminder that even within the realm of toys lies great beauty worth cherishing for generations to come.
