EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in the history of motoring. In the early 1920s, as automobiles became more prevalent on European roads, the automobile association and motor union introduced a new order mandating the use of lamp discs for motorists entering specific areas. This remarkable image showcases the manufacturing process of one such lamp disc, destined to become an essential accessory for every driver. Taken by renowned photographer Alfieri, this monochrome print exudes a timeless charm that transports us back to an era when innovation was rapidly transforming transportation. The intricate details depicted in this image highlight the craftsmanship involved in creating these vital safety devices. The soft lighting beautifully illuminates the workshop where skilled workers meticulously assemble each component with precision and care. Their expertise is evident as they bring together various materials to form a sleek and functional lamp disc that will assist motorists in navigating designated zones. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of how far automotive technology has come since those pioneering days. Yet it also serves as a reminder that even small advancements can have profound impacts on society's well-being. This historical artifact not only documents an important development but also celebrates human ingenuity and our collective commitment to ensuring safer journeys for all who traverse Europe's roads during this transformative period of history.
