EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "CAD-S-050012-0003" taken by Aurelio Monteverde in January 1911, we are transported back in time to the enchanting Zoo Rome. The image beautifully captures a tender moment between a woman and her child near one of the animal cages. The composition is strikingly framed with a park bench as its central element, adding depth and perspective to the overall landscape. The structure's architectural details blend seamlessly with the natural surroundings, creating an atmosphere that exudes both tranquility and curiosity. The woman, dressed in fashionable clothing of the era, wears an elegant hat or headdress which adds a touch of sophistication to her appearance. Her attire suggests she may be attending some sort of social event at the zoo while simultaneously enjoying quality time with her child. Speaking of whom, nestled safely beside his mother, is an adorable young boy who gazes curiously at something beyond our view. His innocent expression perfectly contrasts against the backdrop of captivity symbolized by the nearby cage. This thought-provoking juxtaposition invites us to reflect on themes such as freedom, human-animal relationships, and societal norms prevalent during that period. It serves as a testament to Monteverde's skillful ability to capture not only visual aesthetics but also deeper emotions within his subjects. As we admire this remarkable photograph from Alinari's collection without any commercial intentions in mind, it reminds us how art can transport us through time and space while evoking profound sentiments about our shared history.
