EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "FVQ-F-136984-0000" transports us back in time to the year 1905. The image captures the bustling electric tram station of Opicina, nestled in the picturesque province of Trieste. In this snapshot frozen in history, we witness a railway worker immersed in his vocation. Dressed in traditional attire, he stands proudly on the tracks, overseeing the smooth operation of the streetcar system. His presence exudes dedication and expertise as he ensures safe transportation for countless passengers. The scene itself is a testament to progress and innovation. The electric trams symbolize an era when cities were rapidly evolving with new methods of transportation emerging by land. The intricate network of tracks stretches out before our eyes, connecting various parts of the city and facilitating movement like never before. As we delve deeper into this photograph's details, we are treated to a glimpse of life within Opicina itself. In the background lies a vibrant street scene; buildings line both sides of the road while pedestrians go about their daily routines. This view offers us not only insight into early 20th-century architecture but also allows us to appreciate how cities evolve over time. While much remains unknown about its creator - an unidentified author from Alinari - this print speaks volumes about their skill behind the lens. Through their artistry, they have captured not just an ordinary moment but rather a slice of history that continues to captivate viewers more than a century later.
