EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "AVQ-A-000140-0069" we are transported back in time to the early 20th century. The image showcases a postcard-sized portrait of a woman, elegantly dressed in a petticoat, posing inside a photographic studio. This particular photograph is part of the renowned "Album para Tarjetas postales" collection and was taken around 1910. The scene exudes an intimate ambiance as we witness the subject's poised presence and her connection with the camera lens. Her clothing choice reflects the prevailing fashion trends of that era, emphasizing both modesty and grace. The intricate details on her petticoat highlight the craftsmanship involved in creating such garments during that period. Notably, it is impossible to ignore her meticulously styled hairdo, which undoubtedly required considerable effort to achieve. Every strand seems perfectly arranged, showcasing both creativity and attention to detail. The female subject's portrait is captured while seated on an ornate chair, adding an element of sophistication to the composition. This prop serves not only as support but also enhances the overall aesthetic appeal of the photograph. This remarkable piece originates from Alinari - a name synonymous with excellence in photography for over one hundred years. L. B. , whose full identity remains unknown here, skillfully captures this moment frozen in time through their lens. As we gaze upon this print today, we are reminded of how fashion has evolved throughout history while appreciating its timeless allure. It allows us to reflect on our own perception of beauty and style across different eras – ultimately bridging gaps between generations through visual storytelling.
