EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "CAD-S-140003-0006" transports us back in time to the early 20th century. Taken on February 3rd, 1914, it captures a group of people gathered near the renowned "Bridge of the Saracens" situated between Adrano and Centuripe. The photograph showcases an architectural marvel that has withstood the test of time. Dating back to the years 800-899, this ancient bridge stands as a testament to human ingenuity and engineering prowess. Its sturdy structure spans across a picturesque river course, serving as both a means of transportation and an awe-inspiring sight for all who witness it. The landscape surrounding the bridge is characterized by rocky areas, adding an element of rugged beauty to this already enchanting scene. The group of individuals captured in this image adds depth and context to its narrative. We can only wonder about their stories and why they chose to gather at such a remarkable location. Perhaps they were locals familiar with every nook and cranny of Adrano or curious travelers eager to explore its historical treasures. Photographed by Aurelio Monteverde from Alinari, this artwork not only preserves a moment frozen in time but also offers us a glimpse into Italy's rich cultural heritage. As we admire this print today, let us appreciate the artistry behind capturing such breathtaking landscapes while acknowledging our shared human history that connects us across centuries.
