EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Water seller in Naples" transports us back to the bustling streets of 19th-century Naples. Taken around 1895, this image captures an itinerant vendor going about her trade amidst the vibrant urban landscape. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly the water seller herself. Dressed in traditional clothing that reflects the fashion of the time, she stands proudly with a vase filled with refreshing water balanced on her head. Her portrait exudes strength and resilience as she navigates through crowded streets, offering respite to parched passersby. The backdrop of this scene showcases not only the architectural beauty but also provides a glimpse into daily life during that era. The square or piazza where our water seller stands is surrounded by charming buildings, their facades telling stories of Neapolitan history. Laundry hangs from lines above, adding a touch of domesticity to this lively street scene. Transportation plays a significant role in this photograph as well. A cart wheelbarrow can be seen nearby, symbolizing both mobility and hard work necessary for survival in such an environment. This snapshot offers us a unique view into how people moved goods and themselves across land during that period. Alinari Fratelli's masterful composition allows us to immerse ourselves fully in this moment frozen in time—a testament to his skill as a photographer capturing everyday life with authenticity and artistry. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded not only of Naples' rich cultural heritage but also of humanity's enduring spirit even amidst challenging circumstances—an evocative reminder captured beautifully by Alinari Fratelli's lens over a century ago.
