EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the enchanting village of Scanno, Italy, on a chilly winter day in 1926. Standing proudly before the grand entrance of Chiesa di Santa Maria della Valle is a diverse group of individuals, each exuding their own unique charm. The door itself is an architectural masterpiece, adorned with intricate building elements and decorative sections that speak volumes about the craftsmanship of its time. Its imposing presence commands attention as it opens up to reveal the hidden treasures within. In this snapshot frozen in history, we see a gathering of people from different walks of life coming together for a momentous occasion. The composition captures both young and old, male and female, all dressed in traditional ethnic costumes that reflect their cultural heritage. Their attire adds vibrant pops of color against the backdrop of stone walls and worn steps leading up to the church's entrance. As our eyes wander through this scene filled with anticipation and curiosity, we can't help but wonder what brought these individuals together on that particular day. Were they celebrating a religious ceremony? Or perhaps they were partaking in a local festival or event? Photographer Aurelio Monteverde has expertly captured not only the physical beauty surrounding them but also hints at their shared sense of community spirit. This image serves as a testament to how architecture can bring people together - transcending language barriers and cultural differences. Through this remarkable photograph by Alinari, we are transported back to an era where tradition met modernity; where timeless architecture served as more than just bricks and mortar – it was an emblematic symbol connecting generations past with those yet to come.
