EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white portrait captured by an unidentified author, we are transported back in time to the early 20th century. The photo print, titled "AVQ-A-002056-0002" showcases a young girl who exudes innocence and charm. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the young girl herself, holding a calendar delicately in her hands. Dressed in fashionable attire of the era, she epitomizes elegance even at such a tender age. Her eyes sparkle with curiosity as she gazes directly into the camera lens, inviting us to delve deeper into her world. This particular photograph holds special significance as it doubles up as a Christmas greeting postcard. On its front side, we see a heartfelt inscription that reads 'Bonne Anne, ' symbolizing well wishes for the upcoming year. Turning our attention to the backside reveals not only the date of December 25th but also indicates that this postcard was dispatched from Bulkeley, Alexandria, Egypt. As we admire this timeless piece of artistry, it becomes apparent that it captures more than just an individual moment frozen in time; it encapsulates an entire era's essence. The bow adorning her hair serves as a reminder of fashion trends prevalent during those years while emphasizing her femininity. Beyond its aesthetic appeal lies another layer: symbolism related to time representation and holidays. This photograph evokes nostalgia for Christmases past and reminds us how traditions have evolved over generations yet continue to hold immense sentimental value. Alinari has once again presented us with an extraordinary glimpse into history through their vast collection of photographs like these – each one telling its own unique story without uttering a single word.
