EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, taken around 1920, we are transported to the enchanting beach of Venice Lido. The image captures a young couple seated on a pedalo, gliding effortlessly across the calm waters of the sea. Their carefree smiles and relaxed postures suggest a moment of pure joy and serenity. What makes this scene truly unique is the young woman's unexpected choice of entertainment - she is playing a saxophone! With her eyes closed in concentration, she skillfully produces soulful melodies that blend harmoniously with the gentle lapping of waves against their vessel. It is as if her music becomes one with nature itself. The surrounding landscape adds to the charm of this snapshot. The vast expanse of sea stretches out before them, its tranquil beauty contrasting with the urban structures visible in the distance. The architecture stands as a testament to Venice's rich history and cultural significance. As we delve deeper into this picture, we notice how fashion plays an intriguing role. Both individuals are dressed impeccably for their day at the beach; their clothing reflecting trends from that era. This attention to detail further enhances our understanding of life during those times. This photograph not only captures a couple enjoying each other's company but also serves as documentation for an instrument that has transcended time -the saxophone. Its presence here reminds us how music can transport us beyond physical boundaries and create unforgettable moments like these. Giovanni Scarabello masterfully encapsulates all these elements within his lens – transportation by water, riverbanks meeting sea, landscapes merging seamlessly with human emotions – creating an evocative portrait frozen in time for generations to admire and cherish.
