EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1934, we are transported back in time to witness the renowned photographer Mario Gabinio indulging in a delightful meal at a hotel in Trafoi, Bolzano. Positioned on the right side of the frame, Gabinio exudes an air of sophistication and wisdom that can only come with old age. As our eyes explore the scene, we are drawn to the carefully arranged elements that surround him. The chair he sits upon is a testament to timeless elegance, while the tablecloth drapes gracefully over the table, adding a touch of refinement. A bottle and glass stand proudly nearby, hinting at both conviviality and perhaps even celebration. The furnishings for civic spaces within this hotel exhibit impeccable taste and attention to detail. Every plate and kitchenware piece seems meticulously chosen to enhance not only functionality but also aesthetic pleasure. Even something as simple as a napkin has been thoughtfully placed beside Gabinio's plate. This image captures more than just a momentary dining experience; it offers us glimpses into individual eating habits and their physiological and psychological aspects. We can almost imagine Gabinio savoring each bite with great relish as he contemplates his next photographic masterpiece. Beyond its commercial purpose or mention of any company name, this photograph showcases not only Gabinio's talent behind the camera but also his own personal journey through life. His weathered face tells stories of countless adventures captured through his lens. As viewers today, we have been granted access to an intimate portrait frozen in time - one that reminds us of how photography can transcend mere documentation by revealing deeper layers of human existence.
