EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "AVQ-A-000216-0091" takes us back in time to the enchanting streets of Saint Lucia quarter in Naples. The year is 1903, and as we gaze upon this postcard-like image, we are transported to a bygone era filled with architectural marvels and bustling city life. The focal point of the photograph is an alley that winds its way through the heart of Saint Lucia. Flanked on both sides by magnificent buildings, their intricate facades tell stories of a rich history. Each window seems to hold secrets within its panes, while ornate balconies add a touch of elegance to the scene. As our eyes wander further into the frame, we witness action unfolding before us. People traverse the narrow street - some leisurely strolling along while others seem hurriedly engaged in conversation or going about their daily routines. Their presence adds life and movement to this snapshot frozen in time. Beyond the immediate foreground lies a breathtaking view of the cityscape. Roofs dotted with chimneys stretch out towards distant horizons where bell towers pierce through fluffy clouds. This panoramic vista reminds us that Naples is not just confined within these alleys but extends far beyond our line of sight. Printed on aged paper, this photo carries an air of authenticity that transports us back over a century ago when it was captured by an unidentified author from Alinari. It serves as a testament to how photography can preserve moments forever etched in history. With its impeccable composition capturing architecture, street scenes, and urban life all at once, this print encapsulates both beauty and intrigue—a remarkable glimpse into Naples' past for all who behold it today.
