EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "CAD-S-080006-0013" captured by Aurelio Monteverde in Perugia's historic center, we are transported back to the vibrant streets of the Italian city on September 15th, 1920. The animated view presents a bustling square adorned with architectural marvels and an iconic monument dedicated to Giuseppe Garibaldi. As our eyes wander through the scene, they are immediately drawn to a flock of pigeons gracefully taking flight. These birds, representing freedom and resilience, add a dynamic element to the otherwise still frame. Their presence reminds us that life is constantly in motion even within urban structures. The square itself exudes history and charm. Its cobblestone pavement bears witness to countless footsteps that have traversed its surface over time. Surrounding buildings showcase stunning architecture that reflects Perugia's rich cultural heritage. From this vantage point, we gain a glimpse into daily life in Perugia during the early 20th century. The street scene captures people going about their day – some leisurely strolling while others hurry along with purposeful strides. It is as if time has frozen for just a moment before resuming its relentless march forward. Beyond the immediate surroundings lies an expansive view of the cityscape: rooftops stretching towards distant hillsides painted with hues of green and gold. This panoramic vista serves as a reminder of how interconnected urban spaces are with their natural surroundings. Monteverde's masterful composition not only captures an exquisite moment but also invites us to reflect on themes such as history, architecture, nature's presence within cities, and human activity against timeless backdrops. Through his lens, he encapsulates both beauty and narrative within this single photograph print from Alinari - truly capturing the essence of Perugia at its finest hour.
