EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting photograph of Capolago, a charming village nestled on the shores of Lake Maggiore in Italy. Dating back to the late 19th century, around 1890 to 1900, this coloured print captures the picturesque beauty of the area in an era long past. The village of Capolago, with its quaint houses and narrow streets, is situated on the western shores of Lake Maggiore, one of the largest lakes in Italy. The lake, surrounded by the Alps and the Apennines, has long been a popular destination for travelers seeking relaxation and natural beauty. This nostalgic view of Capolago showcases the village's historic charm, with colorful houses adorned with shuttered windows and red-tiled roofs. The village's central piazza, with its elegant fountain and quaint shops, is a hub of activity, as locals and visitors alike gather to enjoy the sunny weather and picturesque surroundings. The photograph, which is part of a collection of photochrom prints, was likely taken using a process that involved hand-coloring photographs. The result is a vivid and detailed image that captures the essence of a bygone era. As you gaze at this nostalgic view of Capolago, you can almost hear the gentle lapping of the lake waters against the shore and the distant sound of children playing in the streets. This historical photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when life moved more slowly and the simple pleasures of nature were cherished.
