EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the bustling streets of Naples, Italy. Taken between 1879 and 1910, it captures a mesmerizing view of Via Santa Lucia and the iconic Castel dell'Ovo. In the foreground, a majestic horse-drawn tram gracefully glides along the tracks, showcasing an era when terrestrial transportation was dominated by these magnificent mammals. The horses' strength and elegance are evident as they effortlessly pull the tram through the vibrant city streets. The focus then shifts to the impressive architecture that lines Via Santa Lucia. Buildings stand tall on either side of this bustling thoroughfare, housing residents who go about their daily lives within their sturdy walls. Each structure tells a story of its own, reflecting different styles and eras that have shaped Naples over centuries. As our gaze extends further into the distance, we catch sight of a pier jutting out into the glistening waters of both naval and river transport routes. This strategic location emphasizes not only Naples' historical significance as a hub for trade but also its military importance with Castel dell'Ovo standing guard over the Gulf. The composition beautifully captures both land and sea elements in one frame – an exquisite seascape blending harmoniously with urban life. It offers us a glimpse into how people moved around this enchanting city during that period – by land or water – creating a dynamic scene full of action. Brogi's expert craftsmanship is evident in every detail captured within this photograph print from Alinari. Through his lens, he immortalizes not just buildings or modes of transportation but also an entire cityscape teeming with life and history.
