EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Face of a young woman from Taormina" transports us back in time to the early 20th century. Taken on January 22nd, 1906 by the talented Wilhelm von Gloeden, this print captures the essence of youth and beauty. The subject of this portrait is a young woman from Taormina, her delicate features illuminated by natural light. Her face exudes innocence and curiosity as she gazes into the distance. Adorned with a single flower delicately placed behind her ear, she embodies both grace and simplicity. Her fashion choices reflect the trends of that era; her clothing hints at an elegant yet modest style. The intricate hairstyle showcases meticulous attention to detail, emphasizing femininity and sophistication. Beyond capturing physical attributes, Gloeden's lens delves deeper into psychological aspects. The vulnerability in her eyes reveals glimpses of inner thoughts and emotions that remain hidden beneath her youthful facade. Surrounded by lush vegetation, this portrait highlights the harmonious connection between human beings and nature. It serves as a reminder that we are all part of something greater than ourselves – interconnected with our environment. Gloeden's mastery lies not only in his technical skill but also in his ability to capture individuality within each photograph he takes. In this particular image, he immortalizes a moment frozen in time – one woman's unique story preserved for eternity. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry from Alinari's collection, let us appreciate its historical significance while marveling at its timeless beauty.
