EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Howells Vincenzo in 1910, we are transported to the vibrant Feast of St. Anthony of Padua in Scanno, Italy. The image showcases a lively scene filled with joyous celebrations and a rich display of cultural traditions. Amidst the bustling crowd, our attention is drawn to an ox adorned with intricate floral decorations at the center of the frame. This majestic creature symbolizes strength and prosperity, embodying the spirit of this country festival. Surrounding it are terrestrial mammals that seem to be partaking in the festivities as well, adding an element of whimsy to the composition. The human subjects featured in this photo wear a variety of traditional clothing and accessories that reflect their deep-rooted connection to their heritage. Men don hats and headdresses representing different aspects of civilian, military, or religious life. Their attire not only adds visual interest but also serves as a testament to their devotion towards St. Anthony. One man stands out from the crowd—a portrait capturing his striking features exudes confidence and pride. His presence embodies both masculinity and reverence for this sacred occasion. As we delve deeper into this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost hear laughter echoing through the streets while games and pastimes unfold around us. The atmosphere is electric with excitement as people come together to honor their patron saint. This Alinari print allows us a glimpse into history—an enchanting moment when tradition intertwines with festivity—reminding us how important it is to cherish our cultural roots while celebrating life's joys collectively
