EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in the early 1900s, we are transported to a quaint alley in Rome. The scene captures the essence of everyday life as two children joyfully engage in play within the courtyard of their houses. Their laughter fills the air, echoing against the ancient walls that have witnessed countless stories unfold. Seated at a small table nearby, a man engrossed in conversation with another well-dressed gentleman adds an intriguing element to this snapshot of time. Perhaps they are discussing matters of great importance or simply enjoying each other's company amidst the bustling streets of Rome. The architectural details surrounding them further enhance the charm of this image. A wooden chair stands as a testament to both function and craftsmanship, while doors and windows reveal glimpses into these Roman homes. The courtyard itself serves as a sanctuary from city life, providing respite for its inhabitants. As our eyes wander through this visual narrative, we notice traditional clothing adorning both adults and children alike – hats perched atop heads, shoes protecting feet on cobblestone paths. These fashion choices offer insight into societal norms and cultural practices during that era. While not explicitly mentioned by name, Alinari's masterful composition allows us to appreciate every detail captured within this frame: shutters framing windows like delicate sheets fluttering in the breeze; stairs leading up to unseen destinations; even horses peering curiously from afar add an unexpected touch of liveliness. Brogi's skill behind the lens transports us back in time, inviting us to immerse ourselves fully within this moment frozen forever on paper. As we gaze upon "Two Children Playing" we can't help but feel connected to their innocent joy and wonder what stories lie hidden beneath those ancient Roman rooftops.
