EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the bustling Piazza Vittorio Emanuele II in Bologna, Italy. Taken between 1920-1930 by the talented photographer Brogi Giacomo, this image captures the essence of urban life during that era. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly the magnificent equestrian monument situated at the heart of the square. This commemorative structure stands tall and proud, paying homage to a significant figure from history. Surrounding it are lamp posts and power lines, a stark reminder of modernity intertwining with tradition. As we explore further into this snapshot of history, our eyes are drawn to various architectural elements that define this vibrant cityscape. The dome and cupola rise above buildings adorned with intricate facades and porticos. Towering structures feature crenelations that add an air of grandeur to the scene. Intriguingly, a streetcar can be seen gliding along its tracks through this lively setting. It serves as a testament to both transportation methods employed during those times and human activity within these streets. Every detail captured by Giacomo's lens tells a story - from furniture adorning civic spaces to decorative balustrades lining balconies above shops. Even three light windows catch our attention amidst all these fascinating features. Finally, our gaze settles on an emblem or crest displayed prominently on one building facade – perhaps representing an important family or institution associated with Bologna's rich heritage. This remarkable print not only showcases Brogi Giacomo's artistic prowess but also offers us a glimpse into daily life in early 20th-century Bologna. It reminds us how cities evolve over time while still preserving their unique charm and character for generations to come.
