The Scribe, Naples
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a captivating scene from 19th century Italy. In this photograph by Giorgio Sommer, we are transported to the bustling streets of Naples in circa 1870. The image showcases a couple dressed in traditional attire, providing us with a glimpse into their daily lives. The focus of the photo is on the female figure, who is seated on a chair adorned with an elegant kerchief. She holds an object that appears to be related to her work and vocation as a pedlar or merchant. An inscription can be seen on the table next to her, suggesting that she may be involved in commerce and trade. Meanwhile, her male companion stands nearby wearing a hat and holding an umbrella - both common accessories for daytime activities in Italy at that time. He seems engrossed in his task as he writes using pen and ink pot. This snapshot not only offers insights into Italian fashion and clothing during this period but also provides valuable ethnographic details about the local population's way of life. It serves as a fascinating window into European history and culture. "The Scribe, Naples" is part of Bridgeman Images' collection from Alinari Archives in Florence. This print allows us to appreciate the artistry behind capturing everyday scenes while preserving historical moments for generations to come.
