EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Aurelio Monteverde in 1925, we are transported back in time to witness a scene of anticipation and adventure. The image depicts a group of people traveling on a ferry en route to the enchanting island of Capri. As our eyes wander across the frame, we notice the calm waters surrounding the vessel, reflecting its elegant silhouette against the backdrop of an azure sky. The ferry itself stands as a symbol of freedom and exploration, promising new horizons for those aboard. The passengers onboard wear attire typical of that era - men donning suits with hats perched atop their heads while women elegantly clad in flowing dresses adorned with fashionable accessories. Their clothing speaks volumes about the sophistication and refinement prevalent during this period. Amongst them, one gentleman catches our attention as he leans casually on his cane or staff, exuding an air of confidence and worldly wisdom. His watch carefully clasped around his wrist suggests punctuality and perhaps even impatience for reaching their destination. This timeless photograph not only captures a moment frozen in history but also evokes emotions associated with travel - excitement, curiosity, and wonderment. It serves as a reminder that throughout generations, humans have sought solace in exploring new places and embracing different cultures. Monteverde's skillful composition transports us into this bygone era where ferries were not just means of transportation but vessels carrying dreams towards distant shores. As we gaze upon this print today, it is impossible not to feel inspired by these intrepid travelers embarking on their journey to discover all that Capri had to offer – its natural beauty, rich history, and undeniable allure.
