This print transports us back in time to the late 19th century, offering a glimpse into the elegant and bustling Hotel Pagano's restaurant in Capri. Taken between 1870-1880 by renowned photographer Giorgio Sommer, this image captures not only the architectural beauty of the hotel but also its vibrant atmosphere. The focal point of this photograph is undoubtedly the restaurant's exquisite table, adorned with tasteful elements and furnishings for civic spaces. The carefully arranged furniture exudes an air of sophistication, inviting guests to indulge in fine dining experiences within these walls. The attention to detail is evident as every piece seems meticulously chosen to create a harmonious ambiance. As we explore further into this scene, our eyes are drawn towards various intriguing objects that tell stories of commerce and trade. Bottles line shelves behind the counter, hinting at an extensive selection of beverages available for patrons' enjoyment. Kitchenwares are neatly organized on display, showcasing both functionality and aesthetic appeal. The mural painting adorning one wall adds another layer of artistic charm to this already enchanting space. Its intricate details depict scenes that transport diners from their tables to far-off lands or idyllic landscapes – truly enhancing their dining experience. Giorgio Sommer skillfully captures all these elements through his lens, allowing us a glimpse into a bygone era where commercial establishments like Hotel Pagano's were thriving hubs for social interaction and gastronomic delight. This remarkable print serves as a testament not only to Sommer's talent but also as a valuable historical document preserving moments from Capri's past. It invites us to imagine ourselves among those fortunate enough to have dined at Hotel Pagano's during its heyday – savoring delectable dishes while being enveloped by timeless elegance and refined taste.
