EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Via Partenope, Naples: along the road are platoons of soldiers" transports us back in time to a bustling street scene in the heart of Naples. Taken between 1879 and 1910 by renowned photographer Brogi, this image captures the essence of life during that era. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly the platoons of soldiers marching along Via Partenope. Dressed in their military attire, they exude discipline and strength as they make their way through the city streets. Their presence adds an air of authority and importance to this already vibrant scene. As we explore further into the frame, our eyes are drawn to other elements that define this urban landscape. A street lamp stands tall against a backdrop of historic buildings, casting a soft glow on its surroundings. The architecture showcases intricate details and grandeur, reflecting both past glory and present vitality. Naples' proximity to the sea is evident as we catch glimpses of it in the distance - a serene seascape contrasting with the lively cityscape before us. A coach can be seen traversing along Via Partenope, reminding us of transportation methods from days gone by. The composition also includes various objects such as balustrades lining the avenue and furnishings for civic spaces scattered throughout. These details contribute to creating an authentic sense of place within this snapshot frozen in time. Brogi's masterful capture allows us to immerse ourselves in early 20th-century Naples; it invites contemplation about how much has changed while preserving moments like these forever. This print serves not only as a historical document but also as an artistic testament to human existence amidst architectural marvels and daily routines.
