EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "The San Francesco river with bridges and milles, San Remo" transports us back in time to the enchanting landscapes of late 19th-century Italy. Taken around 1890 by the talented photographer Brogi from Alinari, this image captures a picturesque scene that is both serene and bustling with life. In the foreground, we are greeted by an exquisite watermill nestled amidst lush vegetation. Its rustic charm adds a touch of nostalgia to the composition while reminding us of simpler times when such structures played a vital role in rural communities. The mill's wooden wheel stands still as if frozen in time, evoking a sense of tranquility. As our gaze moves further into the frame, we encounter several arched bridges gracefully spanning across the meandering San Francesco river. These architectural marvels not only serve as functional crossings but also add an element of elegance to this idyllic setting. They stand tall against the backdrop of towering trees and abundant greenery that frames the riverbanks. The Sanremo landscape depicted here showcases nature's harmonious coexistence with human intervention. The naval vessels dotting the river surface hint at its importance for transportation during that era. This photograph invites us to reflect on how rivers have long been lifelines connecting communities and facilitating trade throughout history. Brogi's mastery behind the lens shines through in his ability to capture every intricate detail within this mesmerizing composition – from delicate foliage swaying gently in the breeze to each stone adorning these magnificent bridges. "The San Francesco river with bridges and milles" is not just a mere snapshot frozen in time; it is an invitation for viewers to immerse themselves in a moment where nature meets architecture, where simplicity intertwines with grandeur – all encapsulated within one remarkable photograph.
