EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "FVQ-F-173731-0000" captured by the talented Abniacar Charles from Alinari, we are transported back in time to the bustling streets of a city around 1900. The image showcases a vibrant street scene outside the Bolaffi optical shop, offering us a glimpse into daily life during that era. The composition is filled with an array of intriguing elements that draw our attention. A prominent business sign proudly displays the name of the shop, while people mill about on the sidewalk, creating a lively atmosphere. The urban backdrop provides an interesting juxtaposition against the store's exterior and furnishings for civic spaces. As we delve deeper into this snapshot frozen in time, we can appreciate how architecture plays an essential role in shaping both commerce and trade. The structure itself stands as a testament to craftsmanship and design, reflecting the style prevalent during that period. Fashionable individuals passing by add another layer of intrigue to this photograph. Their attire suggests elegance and sophistication, giving us insight into prevailing fashion trends at that time. Additionally, their presence adds movement and action to what would otherwise be a static scene. Through this remarkable image, Abniacar Charles captures not only a view of the city but also offers us glimpses into history – showcasing how commercial establishments like Bolaffi played an integral part in society's fabric. This stunning print serves as more than just visual art; it acts as a portal through which we can explore different aspects of life over 100 years ago. It reminds us that even though times change rapidly, certain elements such as architecture and commerce remain constant threads connecting generations across centuries.
