EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the elegant era of the nineteenth century. The full-length portrait features a young woman dressed in exquisite period attire, seated gracefully in profile against a light-colored wall. The contrast between her figure and the shadow cast by her head and shoulders creates a striking visual effect. The woman's clothing is meticulously detailed, showcasing the fashion trends of that era. Her dress flows delicately around her, with intricate lace accents adorning its bodice and sleeves. A wide-brimmed hat sits atop her head, adding an air of sophistication to her ensemble. It is clear that every element has been carefully chosen to create an image of timeless beauty. In her hands, she holds a small open umbrella, which adds both practicality and charm to the scene. Its presence suggests that this young woman may be preparing for an outing or simply enjoying some leisure time outdoors. Photographed in Uruguay in 1931 by Cesare Scarabello, this image captures not only the aesthetic appeal but also serves as a historical document of fashion during this period. Scarabello's skillful use of lighting enhances the overall composition, highlighting both the subject's elegance and creating depth within the frame. This full-length portrait exemplifies pictorialist photography at its finest – capturing not just reality but also evoking emotion through artistic interpretation. Whether viewed for its scenic qualities or appreciated as part of thematic searches on costume or female portraiture, this print by Scarabello offers viewers a glimpse into another world where gracefulness and style reigned supreme.
