EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Busy street of Olevano Romano" transports us back in time to the early 1900s. The image captures a bustling street scene, with houses lining both sides of the road. As we look closer, we notice that on the stairs of these charming Italian homes, there are some inhabitants going about their daily lives. Amidst this lively setting, our attention is drawn to two women standing out from the crowd. They are dressed in common clothing, wearing aprons and shirts that reflect the fashion trends of that era. What truly captivates us is what they carry on their heads - amphoras! These ancient vessels add an intriguing touch to this already vibrant scene. The architecture surrounding them showcases typical building elements and decorations found in Olevano Romano. From ornate doors and windows to unique sections and structures, each house tells its own story within this historic town. As we delve deeper into this photograph's details, it becomes evident that it was taken during daylight hours. The natural light illuminates every corner of the street while casting shadows along the staircase steps. Brogi's masterful composition allows us to experience a slice of life from over a century ago. It invites us to imagine ourselves strolling down this busy street alongside its inhabitants, witnessing their daily routines against a backdrop of stunning architecture and picturesque views of the countryside. This remarkable print by Alinari not only serves as a visual testament to Olevano Romano's rich history but also reminds us how much can be gleaned from observing ordinary moments frozen in time.
