EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "CAD-S-140018-0007" captured by the talented photographer Aurelio Monteverde, we are transported back in time to the picturesque countryside of Pietrafitta. The date etched on the photograph, 02/09/1920, serves as a reminder of the rich history and timeless beauty that lies within this image. At first glance, our eyes are drawn to a group of individuals standing together against the backdrop of rolling farmland. Their faces tell stories of resilience and hard work, embodying the spirit of those who have dedicated their lives to tending these fertile lands. It is a portrait not only of people but also an ode to their connection with nature. As we explore further into the frame, we notice a magnificent horse gracefully positioned at the center. Its powerful presence symbolizes strength and companionship between humans and animals—a bond that has been integral throughout centuries. The landscape surrounding them paints an idyllic scene—vast fields stretching as far as the eye can see under a clear blue sky. The wheeltracks imprinted on the earth hint at human activity and remind us that progress often leaves its mark on even seemingly untouched landscapes. Monteverde's keen eye for detail captures every element flawlessly—the textures in each blade of grass, every wrinkle etched onto weathered faces—and immortalizes them through his lens. This print from Alinari transports us back in time; it allows us to witness firsthand life in rural Italy nearly a century ago. It reminds us that amidst ever-changing times, there are places where tradition remains steadfastly rooted—an homage to simpler days gone by.
