EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the enchanting streets of Assisi, Italy. The image depicts Via dei Marcelli Vecchi, a narrow alleyway that winds its way through this ancient city. Dating back to around 1926, the photograph captures the essence of a bygone era. As we gaze upon this print by Anderson from Alinari, our eyes are immediately drawn to the beautiful architecture that lines both sides of the street. The houses exude charm and character with their rustic facades and intricate details. Each building tells a story of centuries past, whispering secrets of generations long gone. A prominent feature within this composition is an elegant tower that stands tall amidst its surroundings. Its presence adds a touch of grandeur to an otherwise quaint scene. Climbing plants gracefully entwine themselves around the tower's structure, creating a harmonious blend between nature and man-made beauty. The lane itself seems frozen in time; its cobblestone pavement worn smooth by countless footsteps over many years. It invites us on an imaginary journey through history as we imagine ourselves strolling along its path, soaking in every detail it has witnessed throughout the ages. Vegetation spills out from pots and window boxes adorning these charming dwellings, adding splashes of vibrant green against the muted tones captured in this monochromatic print. This juxtaposition showcases nature's resilience even within urban environments. Anderson's skillful capture allows us to immerse ourselves in this snapshot from another era – one filled with stories waiting to be discovered within each stone wall or hidden corner along Via dei Marcelli Vecchi. It serves as a reminder that even as time moves forward relentlessly, there will always be remnants of our past worth preserving for future generations to appreciate and cherish.
