EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the fascinating excavations in Pompei around 1900. The image, taken by an unknown photographer of the 20th century, showcases a street scene from this ancient archaeological site in Italy. The photograph is part of a private collection and provides a glimpse into the early twentieth century exploration of Pompeii. In this snapshot, we are transported back in time to witness the uncovering of this historic city. The view of the city reveals remnants of buildings and streets that were buried for centuries under layers of volcanic ash from Mount Vesuvius' eruption in AD 79. The meticulous excavation work being carried out by archaeologists can be seen as they carefully unearth artifacts and structures. The atmosphere captured in this photo is one filled with both awe and doom. It serves as a reminder of the tragic events that unfolded here over two thousand years ago while also highlighting humanity's relentless pursuit to understand our past. Stefano Bianchetti, who has preserved this remarkable moment through his lens, has beautifully captured not only the physical remains but also the spirit of Pompeii itself. This photograph stands as a testament to both Italian history and European archaeology, offering us an invaluable window into antiquity.
