EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Italy: Pola, Arena" takes us back to the 1930s, a time when Europe was on the cusp of great change. The image, captured by German photographer Kurt Hielscher (1881-1948), showcases his artistic prowess and keen eye for detail. The photograph is part of a private collection and was originally published in Hielscher's book "Unbekanntes Italien" or "Unknown Italy" which was released in 1941. The etching technique used to print this image adds depth and texture, enhancing its historical significance. "Pola, Arena" transports us to an unknown corner of Italy during the early twentieth century. The grandeur of the ancient Roman amphitheater dominates the frame, evoking a sense of awe and admiration for Italy's rich history. As we gaze upon this scene from decades past, we can almost hear echoes of gladiatorial battles that once took place within these walls. Hielscher's work not only captures architectural marvels but also serves as a visual travelogue through lesser-known parts of Italy. This particular photo invites us to explore Pola (now Pula), located in present-day Croatia. Its inclusion in Hielscher's book reflects his curiosity about undiscovered Italian gems beyond popular tourist destinations. As we admire this timeless piece of artistry by Kurt Hielscher, it reminds us that photographs have the power to transport us across time and space while preserving moments from our shared human history.
