EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "CAD-S-150003-0004" by Aurelio Monteverde from Alinari, we are transported back in time to the picturesque streets of Pescocostanzo. The date on the photograph reads 08/02/1926, a significant moment frozen in history. The image showcases a remarkable group portrait that exudes an air of authenticity and cultural richness. Standing proudly in their ethnic traditional costumes, a diverse ensemble of women takes center stage. Each woman is adorned with vibrant attire that reflects their unique heritage and adds a splash of color to the monochrome surroundings. The street scene captured here offers us a glimpse into daily life during this era. Cobblestone roads wind through rustic buildings, providing an idyllic backdrop for this gathering. It's as if time has stood still, allowing us to witness the beauty and simplicity of rural Italy. One striking element within the composition is an intricately designed pitcher held by one of the women. This object not only serves as an ornamental piece but also hints at traditions and customs deeply rooted in local culture. Monteverde's keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate every aspect of this enchanting view of the country town. The play between light and shadow creates depth while highlighting each individual's unique features. This print transports us beyond mere imagery; it invites us to reflect upon our shared human experience throughout history. It reminds us that despite our differences, there is beauty in diversity and unity in tradition. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing snapshot from 1926, we can't help but feel grateful for photographers like Monteverde who have preserved these precious moments for generations to come
