EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Portrait of two mountains, town of Fobello, Valsesia" transports us back in time to the early 20th century. Taken between 1915 and 1920 by Alinari, Fratelli, this image captures the essence of a small Italian village nestled amidst majestic peaks. In this portrait, we see a traditional couple standing proudly in their local attire. The woman's costume is particularly striking; her clothing reflects the fashion and style prevalent during that era. With intricate details such as panniers and carefully arranged layers of fabric, her ensemble showcases the rich cultural heritage of Piedmont. The couple stands before an ornate gate that serves as a symbolic entrance to their world. Behind them loom two magnificent mountains, which dominate the landscape with their grandeur. These natural wonders not only provide a breathtaking backdrop but also serve as a testament to the resilience and strength of the people who call this place home. As we gaze at this photograph, we are reminded of Europe's diverse population and its vibrant tapestry of cultures. It offers us an intimate glimpse into the lives of individuals who have preserved their ethnic traditions through generations. Alinari's masterful composition invites us to explore anthropology, ethnography, folklore - disciplines that seek to understand human culture and society. Through his lens, he captures not just an image but also a story waiting to be discovered. This print is more than just art; it represents our shared history and reminds us how important it is to cherish our roots while embracing diversity.
