EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Roesler Franz Ettore takes us back in time to the enchanting streets of Trastevere, a neighborhood nestled in the heart of Rome. The animated view captures an alley bustling with life and activity, providing a glimpse into the daily lives of its inhabitants during the late 19th century. In the background stands the magnificent Church of Santa Bonosa, a symbol of faith and devotion that once graced this vibrant community. However, tragedy struck in 1888 when this architectural gem was destroyed, forever altering the landscape and leaving behind only memories and remnants. As we explore this snapshot frozen in time, we are drawn to various elements that tell stories within themselves. A female figure gracefully walks along the narrow lane, her presence adding depth to our understanding of urban life at that time. A portrait of a male child further emphasizes themes such as poverty and social conditions prevalent during this era. The scene is alive with action; people going about their daily routines amidst these historic surroundings. It offers us a window into society and politics during those years – an intimate connection between architecture, religion, culture, and everyday existence. Through Ettore's lens, we are transported to another world - one where ancient buildings coexist with humanity's struggles and triumphs. This street scene provides not just a view but also invites contemplation on how cities evolve over time while retaining their unique character. Alinari has preserved this remarkable piece from history for all to appreciate - reminding us that even though physical structures may crumble or vanish entirely like Santa Bonosa did long ago; photographs endure as powerful testaments to our shared past.
