EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the Room of Tiberius within the Royal Apartments of the National Museum of Capodimonte in Naples. The focal point of this image is a remarkable piece of art, "The cradle of Vittorio Emanuele III" created by Domenico Morelli and Ignazio Perricci during the 19th century. The cradle itself is an exquisite example of arts and handicrafts from that era, showcasing intricate details and craftsmanship. Placed prominently within this opulent room, it exudes elegance and grandeur. Adorned with angelic figures and putti, it evokes a sense of divine inspiration. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded not only of its artistic significance but also its historical context. This cradle once held Vittorio Emanuele III, who was King of Italy from 1900 to 1946. It serves as a tangible link to European history during the first half of the 20th century. Surrounded by other period furnishings for civic spaces, this artwork stands out as a testament to both literature and fiction. Its presence invites us to imagine scenes from biblical tales depicted throughout literature's rich tapestry. Captured between 1879-1910 by Brogi from Alinari, this photograph preserves an important moment in time when artistry met royalty. It allows us to appreciate not only the beauty captured within these walls but also offers insight into Europe's cultural heritage during that period. Whether one admires it for its artistic merit or appreciates its historical significance, "The cradle of Vittorio Emanuele III" reminds us that even everyday objects can become symbols imbued with meaning over time.
