EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a mesmerizing moment during a procession in a quaint small town. The "living picture" being carried along the road is nothing short of extraordinary, as it portrays a young woman disguised as the Blessed Virgin Mary. As she is lifted from the ground, her feet delicately rest upon both the terrestrial globe and the moon. The image exudes an air of mystery and intrigue, with its combination of devilish elements and allegorical symbolism. The young woman's disguise as the revered Virgin Mary adds an ethereal quality to the scene, evoking feelings of awe and reverence among onlookers. Dressed in elaborate costume and fashionably adorned, this figure stands out amidst the crowd. Her presence creates a striking contrast against the backdrop of processions and religious festivals that often characterize Catholicism. The composition itself speaks volumes about abstract concepts such as faith, spirituality, and devotion. It serves as a visual representation of biblical narratives found within the New Testament while also embodying various Christian religious themes. Photographed around 1900 in Campobasso by Howells Vincenzo from Alinari, this print showcases not only his artistic prowess but also his ability to capture profound moments frozen in time.
