EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "CAD-S-010002-0010" by Aurelio Monteverde from Alinari, we are transported back in time to the early 20th century. The image captures a remarkable moment during an excursion to Mount Etna, where a woman stands confidently on a ladder against the backdrop of this majestic natural wonder. The date of the photograph is marked as 17-18/09/1905, adding historical significance and providing us with a glimpse into the fashion and clothing styles of that era. The woman's attire showcases the elegance and sophistication prevalent during those times. As our eyes wander across the frame, we notice intricate architectural details surrounding her. The wall behind her features building elements adorned with decorative sections, highlighting both craftsmanship and artistic flair. A grand staircase can be seen in the background, further enhancing the sense of scale and grandeur. The presence of the ladder adds an element of intrigue to this portrait. It symbolizes ambition, progress, and perhaps even adventure – all qualities embodied by this daring woman who fearlessly ascends it amidst such awe-inspiring surroundings. Monteverde's skillful composition allows us to appreciate not only the subject but also his ability to capture light during daytime perfectly. The play between shadows and sunlight creates depth within each element present in this photograph. This stunning portrait serves as a testament to Monteverde's talent as well as his keen eye for capturing moments that transcend time itself. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image over a century later, we cannot help but feel connected to both its subjects and their extraordinary journey on Mount Etna.
