EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1913 showcases the stunning view of Naples, Italy. The focal point is the iconic Grand Hotel Santa Lucia, standing proudly on the bay with Mount Vesuvius looming majestically in the background. The image captures a moment frozen in time, as smoke billows from Vesuvius' volcanic peak, creating an ethereal atmosphere. In the foreground, a boat gently glides across the calm waters of the bay, adding to the tranquility of this picturesque scene. The photograph also reveals snippets of everyday life in early 20th century Naples. A clothesline stretches between two buildings near the hotel, adorned with freshly washed garments swaying in the sea breeze. This charming detail adds a touch of authenticity and nostalgia to this vintage postcard. As a souvenir sent by an Italian photographer over a century ago, it serves as both a memento and historical artifact capturing not only beautiful scenery but also providing insight into transportation during that era. It reminds us of how Italians traveled by boats and other means of conveyance to reach their destinations. Preserved within private collections until now, this remarkable photograph offers viewers an enchanting glimpse into Naples' past – its natural beauty juxtaposed against human activity and architectural marvels like Grand Hotel Santa Lucia – making it truly timeless.
