EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the bustling Piazza XX Settembre in Bologna, Italy. Taken between 1921 and 1922 by an unidentified author, this image captures the essence of a vibrant urban scene. The focal point of the photograph is a majestic street lamp that stands tall amidst the lively square. Its elegant design adds a touch of sophistication to the surroundings, illuminating both the physical space and metaphorically symbolizing enlightenment. Surrounding the lamp are various furnishings for civic spaces, showcasing an array of benches and chairs where locals and visitors alike can rest their weary feet. These pieces of furniture not only provide comfort but also contribute to the overall aesthetic appeal of this public area. A grand gateway adorned with commemorative structures leads into what appears to be a church or religious building. The architectural details are exquisite, reflecting centuries-old craftsmanship that still stands strong today. Intriguingly, we catch sight of a streetcar on its tracks passing through Piazza XX Settembre. This method of transportation was undoubtedly vital during those times, connecting people from different parts of Bologna as they went about their daily lives. From this vantage point, we gain a panoramic view of the cityscape surrounding Piazza XX Settembre. It's fascinating how much has changed over time yet equally remarkable how certain elements have remained constant throughout history. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time by Alinari's lens, we can't help but appreciate its historical significance and marvel at how it encapsulates both mundane moments and extraordinary glimpses into life in early 20th-century Bologna.
