EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "MFC-F-002192-0000" captures a poignant moment in history. The image showcases the compassionate efforts of the Trinci Office as they furnish litter to the Green Cross of Pistoia during an uncertain time. Dating back to approximately 1895, this photograph provides a glimpse into a bygone era. In the foreground, we see a stretcher bearer dressed in his work attire, representing dedication and selflessness. His uniform reflects both functionality and style, with its practicality for work purposes while also showcasing elements of fashion from that period. A distinctive hat adorns his head, adding an air of authority to his role. The focus then shifts towards the patient lying on the stretcher - a wounded individual whose social status remains unknown but is undoubtedly impacted by society and politics at large. This portrait reminds us of the fragility of life and serves as a testament to humanity's ongoing struggle against adversity. Transportation plays a significant role in this scene; here we witness individuals carrying out their duties with utmost care while utilizing various methods such as walking or other forms available at that time. In particular, attention is drawn towards an old-fashioned lamp nearby which illuminates their path amidst darkness. Authored by Biagioni A. , this Alinari print encapsulates not only historical significance but also evokes emotions within viewers who are transported back in time through its powerful imagery. It serves as a reminder that acts of kindness and compassion have always been essential throughout history – even during challenging times when healing was desperately needed.
