EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "CAD-S-030024-0003" we are transported back in time to the picturesque beach of Procchio on a summer day, precisely on the 28th of July in 1926. The image captures a heartwarming portrait of a man accompanied by two children, creating an endearing scene that speaks volumes about family bonds and carefree moments. The sandy shore stretches out behind them, merging seamlessly with the vast expanse of the sea. The landscape is beautifully framed by the lens of Aurelio Monteverde, who skillfully captures both the tranquility and energy present in this coastal setting. The man at the center of attention wears a hat that adds an air of sophistication to his appearance. His gaze is fixed somewhere beyond our view, perhaps lost in contemplation or simply enjoying precious moments spent with his beloved children. Both kids ride atop horses, their faces beaming with joy as they experience the thrill of horseback riding along the shoreline. Monteverde's mastery lies not only in capturing human subjects but also showcasing nature's beauty through these terrestrial mammals – horses – which symbolize strength and freedom. These majestic creatures become partakers in this intimate moment shared between father and children. This photograph serves as a testament to fashion trends prevalent during that era; it showcases various headdresses worn by civilians or military personnel while simultaneously highlighting clothing accessories popular at that time. As we delve into this timeless snapshot from Alinari's collection, we are reminded once again how photography has preserved cherished memories throughout history. It allows us to witness fleeting moments frozen forever within its frame - like this portrait taken almost a century ago - evoking emotions and connecting generations across time.
