EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "CAD-S-070013-0001" takes us back in time to the enchanting streets of Perugia in September 1922. The image beautifully captures a moment frozen in history, showcasing a stunning portrait of a woman seated gracefully inside an automobile. The setting is an urban road avenue adorned with remarkable architectural structures that reflect the charm and character of this Italian city. As we gaze at the photograph, we are transported into another era, where horse-drawn carriages have given way to modern automobiles. The focus remains on the elegant female subject who sits confidently behind the wheel, her eyes fixed ahead as if contemplating her next adventure. Her presence exudes both grace and independence, embodying the spirit of women breaking societal norms during this period. Monteverde's expert composition allows us to appreciate not only the woman but also offers a glimpse into life on the road. Through her windshield, we catch sight of bustling streets filled with other vehicles and pedestrians going about their daily routines. This scene provides us with a unique view of Perugia's vibrant cityscape from decades ago. Aurelio Monteverde's masterful portrayal effortlessly combines elements such as transportation and architecture while celebrating femininity within this historical context. The photograph serves as a testament to his artistic prowess and ability to capture fleeting moments that resonate across generations. As we admire this mesmerizing print from Alinari, let it transport us back in time—a visual portal connecting past and present—inviting contemplation on how our cities have evolved while reminding us that some things remain timeless: beauty, strength, and resilience.
