EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the streets of Naples in 1861, as depicted by the talented artist Tony Francois de Bergue. The focus of this illustration is a macaroni merchant, immersed in his daily routine amidst the vibrant chaos of the city. With skilled precision, Bergue captures every detail - from the bustling street scene to the essence of Neapolitan life. The macaroni merchant stands proudly behind his stall, showcasing an array of freshly made pasta that tempts passersby with its mouthwatering aroma. His weathered face tells a story of hard work and dedication, embodying the spirit of these industrious Italian merchants. As customers gather around him, eager to purchase their favorite pasta shapes and flavors, one can almost taste the deliciousness that awaits them. Marc Monnier's engraving beautifully portrays not only a simple meal but also a slice of Neapolitan culture during this period. It serves as a reminder that food has always been an integral part of Italy's rich heritage - connecting people through shared experiences and traditions. This remarkable piece from Leonard de Selva's collection transports us back in time, allowing us to witness firsthand how commerce intertwined with everyday life in Naples over a century ago. It is truly an exquisite representation capturing both artistic brilliance and historical significance.
