EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The preparation of fish near Noli, Province of Savona" transports us back in time to the early 20th century. The image captures a scene brimming with activity and tranquility simultaneously. In the foreground, we see a group of women diligently engaged in their work, skillfully preparing fish on drying racks. Their hands move swiftly as they clean and arrange the catch of the day. The baskets filled with straw nearby suggest that these women are not only skilled workers but also possess knowledge about packaging and preserving food. As our gaze shifts towards the background, we notice men and women taking respite from their labor under the comforting shade of a mat. They sit together, sharing stories or perhaps enjoying a momentary escape from their daily routines. This glimpse into their lives reveals not just hard work but also moments of camaraderie and rest amidst nature's beauty. The attire worn by these individuals reflects popular fashion trends of that era - simple yet practical clothing suitable for their demanding tasks at hand. Their dedication to fishing is evident through this snapshot; it represents both vocation and sustenance for this close-knit community. Alinari Fratelli's masterful composition allows us to witness an intimate portrait of life near Noli during 1915-1920. Through his lens, he immortalizes an essential aspect of Italian culture - its deep connection with seafood as a staple diet. This print serves as a reminder that even mundane activities can hold immense significance when viewed through historical lenses. It invites us to appreciate both the artistry behind Alinari's capture and the rich heritage embedded within each frame.
