EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the enchanting island of Rhodes in Greece during the year 1936. The image showcases the magnificent exterior of the Balilla House, a remarkable architectural gem that stands proudly against a backdrop of lush vegetation and towering trees. The facade of this grand building is adorned with intricate details and decorative elements, reflecting an era when craftsmanship was highly valued. Its elegant sections and unique design speak volumes about the rich history and cultural heritage that can be found on this Mediterranean island. As we gaze at this photograph, our eyes are drawn to the imposing door and windows that punctuate the structure's facade. They offer glimpses into what lies within, inviting us to imagine what stories may have unfolded behind those walls all those years ago. The surrounding urban landscape adds another layer of intrigue to this image. A staircase gracefully descends towards a road avenue, hinting at bustling activity and movement within its vicinity. This snapshot captures not only an architectural marvel but also provides a glimpse into daily life during that period. It is impossible to ignore the historical significance associated with this photograph. The mention of fascism reminds us of Italy's influence over Rhodes during this time, as well as broader contemporary history subjects such as populations, territories, and political ideologies. Alinari Fratelli has masterfully captured both beauty and history in one frame through their lens. This print serves as a visual testament to human ingenuity while also offering valuable insights into our collective past – reminding us how architecture can shape societies while standing tall amidst changing times.
