EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Napoli col Vesuvio; Naples and Vesuvius" transports us back to the early 20th century, specifically the 1920s. The image captures the historic city of Naples in Italy, with the imposing Mount Vesuvius looming in the background. The photographer, Kurt Hielscher (1881-1948), a renowned German artist and photographer, beautifully captures both the architectural beauty of Naples and the awe-inspiring presence of Vesuvius. This particular print was an illustration for Italien, Baukunst und Landschaft (Ernst Wasmuth, 1925) - a publication that showcased Italian architecture and landscapes. The contrast between light and shadow in this photograph adds depth to its composition. The viewer's attention is drawn towards the magnificent sight of Mount Vesuvius rising majestically from behind Naples' rooftops. Its volcanic nature is emphasized by its distinct crater visible at its peak. This image not only serves as a historical document but also evokes a sense of wonderment about nature's power. It reminds us of one of history's most famous volcanic eruptions - when Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD 79, burying Pompeii under layers of ash. Overall, this print offers a glimpse into Italy's rich history while showcasing Hielscher's artistic talent as he expertly captures both architectural beauty and natural wonders within one frame.
