EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "CAD-S-060007-0001" captured by Aurelio Monteverde in Piazza San Marco, Venice on September 30th, 1923, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen in history. The image showcases a young woman and a man amidst the bustling crowd of pigeons that have made the square their home. The grandeur of the architecture surrounding them serves as an impressive backdrop for this intimate scene. As they stand side by side, their attire reflects the fashion trends of the era - she wears an elegant hat while he sports a stylish headdress. These accessories not only add to their charm but also provide insights into societal norms and personal style choices during that period. The presence of pigeons adds life and movement to the photograph. These birds, classified as vertebrates, symbolize freedom within an urban setting. Their association with public squares like Piazza San Marco is well-known throughout history. As we delve deeper into this image, it becomes evident that it captures more than just two individuals sharing a moment together; it encapsulates society's intricate web of associations. The cane held by one of them signifies authority or perhaps acts as support while navigating through the crowded square. Monteverde's skillful composition allows us to peer into a world long gone yet still resonating with timeless beauty and intrigue. This print offers us glimpses into both individual lives and broader social dynamics against the stunning architectural backdrop of Venice's most iconic square.
