EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Market in Campo de 'Fiori" transports us back to the bustling streets of Rome during the late 19th century. Taken between 1860 and 1870 by the talented photographer Roesler Franz Ettore, this image captures a vibrant scene filled with commerce and trade. In the heart of Campo de 'Fiori square, we witness an array of itinerant vendors showcasing their wares. The market is alive with activity as people from all walks of life gather to purchase goods. The scale and instruments used by these vendors are fascinating; they employ movable stands and structures that add a unique architectural element to the scene. The urban landscape surrounding the market provides a stunning backdrop for this snapshot of daily life in Rome. The square itself exudes an air of popularity, drawing crowds who come not only for necessities but also to indulge in fashion and clothing trends of the time. However, amidst this lively atmosphere lies evidence of social conditions marked by poverty. Observing closely, one can discern individuals whose clothing suggests their economic struggles. This juxtaposition highlights both society's diversity and its underlying challenges. As our eyes wander through this street scene, we catch glimpses of city views beyond the marketplace stalls – a reminder that life continues beyond these temporary structures. A basket here, a beach umbrella there – each object adds depth to our understanding of this moment frozen in time. Alinari has masterfully preserved this historical photograph print for us to appreciate today. It serves as a window into Rome's past where commerce intertwines with societal dynamics against an ever-evolving urban backdrop - truly capturing history within its frame.
