EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Holidays Abetone: two girls on the ski slopes" transports us back in time to the winter wonderland of 1927. The image captures a serene landscape of majestic mountains covered in a thick blanket of snow, creating an idyllic backdrop for this timeless scene. In the foreground, two young girls stand side by side, their figures gracefully poised against the snowy terrain. Dressed in warm winter attire, they exude a sense of excitement and adventure as they prepare to conquer the ski slopes. Their faces are filled with anticipation and joy, reflecting the exhilaration that comes with indulging in winter sports. The photographer's skillful composition highlights both the natural beauty surrounding them and their presence within it. The vastness of the mountainous landscape emphasizes their small stature while also emphasizing their courage to take on such challenging terrain. As we delve deeper into this photograph, we can almost feel ourselves transported to that moment in time – feeling the crisp air on our cheeks and hearing nothing but silence interrupted only by laughter and skis gliding through fresh powder. It serves as a reminder that despite technological advancements or changing trends over decades, some experiences remain timeless. Monteverde Aurelio's masterful capture not only documents these two girls' thrilling adventure but also immortalizes an era when skiing was still relatively new and exclusive to those who sought out its thrills amidst nature's pristine beauty. This print from Alinari is more than just an image; it is a portal into history—a testament to human resilience against harsh winters—and a celebration of youthful spirit embracing life's challenges head-on.
