EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph titled "Group of packers resting on Mount Vandalini, Val Pellice" we are transported back in time to the early 20th century. Taken around 1910 by Mario Gabinio, this image captures a moment of respite for a group of weary packers amidst the breathtaking landscape of Val Pellice Piedmont. The scene unfolds with an air of camaraderie as these rugged individuals take a break from their arduous journey up Mount Vandalini. Dressed in various styles of clothing that reflect both civilian and military influences, each person's unique headdress adds an intriguing touch to the composition. Their hats serve not only as protection against the elements but also as symbols of identity and personal style. Accessories such as canes, staffs, backpacks, and knapsacks lie scattered around them - tangible evidence of their adventurous spirit and preparedness for long walking excursions through challenging terrains. Binoculars rest beside one individual, hinting at their appreciation for nature's grandeur. As our gaze shifts beyond the group towards the majestic mountainscape behind them, we are reminded why they have embarked on this journey. The towering peaks stand tall against the sky, reminding us all how small we are in comparison to Mother Nature's wonders. This portrait freezes a fleeting moment in time when these packers found solace amidst nature's splendor. It serves as a testament to human resilience and our innate desire to explore new horizons while embracing moments of tranquility along the way. Mario Gabinio has masterfully captured not just a group but also an essence - an essence that speaks volumes about adventure-seeking souls who find peace within themselves while conquering mountains both literal and metaphorical.
