EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Villani Studio, we are transported back in time to the enchanting shores of Italy during the 1950s or 1960s. The image portrays two travelling salesmen strolling along a picturesque beach, their figures silhouetted against the vast expanse of sky and sea. Dressed in fashionable attire of that era, one can't help but notice their berets adding a touch of sophistication to their appearance. With straw baskets slung over their shoulders and aprons tied around their waists, these vendors carry with them an array of objects symbolizing commerce and trade. As they walk barefoot on the sandy terrain, it is evident that they have embarked on a journey to sell their wares. A scale instrument peeks out from one salesman's basket, indicating his dedication to providing accurate measurements for customers seeking fresh produce such as fruits – perhaps even bananas which can be seen protruding from the top. The landscape surrounding them is nothing short of breathtaking; rolling waves crash gently onto the shore while lush vegetation thrives under the warm Italian sun. This harmonious blend of natural elements creates an idyllic backdrop for these hardworking individuals who rely on both land and sea for sustenance. Amongst this serene setting lies a hidden gem - a young child standing beside one salesman. Dressed in adorable fashion suitable for little ones at that time period, she adds an innocent charm to this otherwise bustling scene. This remarkable photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of simpler days when travelling salesmen roamed beaches like nomads carrying treasures within straw baskets. It encapsulates both the beauty of nature and human perseverance amidst challenging circumstances – truly showcasing Alinari's mastery behind the lens.
