EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the bustling port of Ripa Grande in Rome during the late 19th century. The image beautifully captures a snapshot of history, showcasing both the architectural grandeur of this significant port and the natural beauty of its surroundings. In the foreground, we see a well-structured and busy naval and river port, teeming with activity. Large ships are docked along the quay, ready for transportation across vast distances. The intricate design of these vessels stands as a testament to human ingenuity and craftsmanship. As our gaze moves towards the background, we are greeted by an enchanting sight - Aventine Hill majestically rising against the skyline. This iconic hill has been witness to countless historical events throughout Rome's rich past, making it an integral part of this photograph's narrative. The landscape surrounding Ripa Grande is equally mesmerizing; lush greenery lines both sides of the river course that flows gently through this picturesque scene. A small boat glides effortlessly on these calm waters, adding a touch of tranquility amidst all the hustle and bustle. This print not only showcases a method of transportation but also serves as a window into life during that era – capturing moments frozen in time forever. It allows us to imagine what it would have been like to be present at such an important hub for trade and commerce. Photographed by Roesler Franz Ettore around 1860-1870, this remarkable piece from Alinari evokes nostalgia while reminding us how much our world has evolved over time. It invites viewers to appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also reflect upon how far we have come since then in terms of technology and progress.
