EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "People sitting outside the Sottile Hospice in Valdobbiadene" takes us back to a bygone era. Dating from around 1900, this image captures the essence of a charitable institution nestled in the picturesque town of Valdobbiadene. The Sottile Hospice stands as an architectural marvel, its structure exuding both grandeur and compassion. In this portrait-like composition, we see a diverse group of individuals gathered outside the hospice's entrance. Among them are women dressed in elegant period costumes, their presence lending an air of grace and refinement to the scene. Men can be seen seated alongside them, their expressions hinting at stories untold. A child completes this tableau with his innocent gaze and youthful energy. The photograph not only showcases the people but also offers glimpses into daily life during that time. It invites us to imagine conversations shared on these very steps - tales of hope and resilience amidst challenging circumstances. While the author remains unidentified, credit must be given for capturing such a poignant moment frozen in time. Through their lens, they have immortalized an instance where humanity comes together within these walls dedicated to healing and care. This remarkable print from Alinari transports us back more than a century ago when community support was paramount for institutions like Sottile Hospice in Valdobbiadene. As we admire this snapshot today, it serves as a reminder that even amidst adversity, there is always room for compassion and unity – values that transcend time itself.
