Canal Chair Hydraulic Of A Group

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "CAD-S-060007-0002" we are transported back in time to the enchanting city of Venice. The year is 1923, and a group portrait unfolds before our eyes, capturing a moment frozen in history. The setting is none other than the iconic Venetian canals, with their intricate hydraulic structures forming a picturesque backdrop for this gathering. The architecture surrounding them adds an air of grandeur to the scene, evoking a sense of timeless beauty. As our gaze shifts towards the subjects themselves, we notice their diverse headdresses - civilian, military, and religious - each one telling its own story. These hats serve as both practical accessories and fashion statements that reflect the style of the era. The individuals in this group portrait exude elegance and sophistication through their choice of clothing. Their attire showcases not only the prevailing fashion trends but also hints at their social status within society. Amidst this sea of faces, we spot a chair placed strategically at the center. It acts as both an object of utility and symbolism; perhaps it signifies hierarchy or leadership within this distinguished gathering. This remarkable photograph was captured by Aurelio Monteverde from Alinari's collection. Through his lens, Monteverde masterfully freezes time and invites us to delve into an era long gone but forever preserved through his artistry. As we admire this print devoid of any commercial context or intent, we are left with nothing but sheer awe for its historical significance. It serves as a testament to Venice's enduring allure while offering us glimpses into lives lived during that distant September day in 1923
