EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the enchanting streets of Rome. The image showcases Via della Salara, a road that no longer exists today but once stood as a testament to the city's rich history. Captured by Roesler Franz Ettore between 1880-1890, this photograph offers a glimpse into an era long gone. The architectural elements depicted in the picture are truly remarkable. An elegant arch stands proudly at the entrance of the street, welcoming passersby with its grandeur. The building sections and decorative details adorning each structure add depth and character to this urban landscape frozen in time. As we explore further into the frame, our eyes are drawn towards a gallery-like structure on one side of Via della Salara. Its intricate design hints at its historical significance, perhaps serving as a gathering place for locals or hosting cultural events during its heyday. The presence of railway tracks adds another layer of intrigue to this scene from yesteryears. It serves as a reminder of how transportation has evolved over time and how these iron wheels once carried people through bustling streets like these. While it is unfortunate that Via della Salara no longer exists today, this photograph allows us to appreciate its beauty and imagine what life was like during that period. It invites us to reflect on the ever-changing nature of cities and reminds us that even though physical structures may fade away, their memories endure through art such as this stunning print by Alinari.
