EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "CAD-S-150017-0016" by Aurelio Monteverde from Alinari, we are transported back in time to September 1906. The image captures the essence of a serene garden adorned with lush prickly pears, showcasing nature's resilience and beauty. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly two young girls standing amidst the prickly pear plants. Their innocent faces radiate joy as they explore this enchanting botanical wonderland. Dressed in fashionable attire of that era, their hats and headdresses add an air of elegance to the scene. One girl holds an umbrella, perhaps shielding herself from the sun or using it as a stylish accessory. The other girl stands confidently beside her companion, both seemingly at ease in this idyllic setting. Monteverde's composition skillfully frames these girls within the verdant landscape, emphasizing their connection with nature. The juxtaposition between delicate femininity and resilient succulent plants creates a visually striking contrast. This photograph not only showcases botany but also offers us a glimpse into fashion trends prevalent during that period. It serves as a testament to how clothing choices can reflect one's personality even when surrounded by natural splendor. As we admire this vintage print captured over a century ago, we are reminded of our timeless fascination with gardens and parks – places where humans find solace among flora's embrace. Monteverde masterfully immortalizes these two young females against a backdrop that symbolizes growth, endurance, and harmony between humanity and nature.
