EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back to the summer of 1925, capturing the grandeur of The Grand Hotel Excelsior in Lido, Venice. Standing proudly against a backdrop of azure waters and golden sands, this architectural masterpiece exudes elegance and charm. The hotel's imposing structure dominates the scene, its intricate details showcased in every corner. From the ornate balconies adorned with delicate ironwork to the majestic archways that frame each entrance, it is clear that no expense was spared in creating this luxurious beachfront retreat. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost hear the laughter and chatter drifting from its grounds. This was a place where people came to escape their everyday lives; a haven for relaxation and leisurely pursuits. Games and pastimes were enjoyed on its manicured lawns while guests reveled in all that summer had to offer. Beyond the hotel's walls lies an expansive seascape - a testament to nature's beauty complementing man-made opulence. The vastness of the sea stretches out before us, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in its refreshing embrace or simply bask under the warm Mediterranean sun on one of Lido's pristine beaches. This photograph not only captures a moment but also represents an era when time seemed slower-paced and life revolved around indulging in simple pleasures. It serves as a reminder of how architecture can shape our experiences by providing spaces where memories are made. Although taken by an unidentified author, this print from Alinari allows us to step into history for just a moment – experiencing firsthand what it must have been like during those glorious summers at The Grand Hotel Excelsior on Venice Lido.
