EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the enchanting streets of Cassibile, a fraction of Syracuse. Dated 13th May 1913, it captures a pair of hikers strolling along a picturesque street, immersing themselves in the beauty of their surroundings. The photographer, Aurelio Monteverde from Alinari, skillfully frames this scene with an artistic eye. The landscape depicted is rugged and rocky, showcasing nature's raw beauty. It serves as a reminder that even amidst urban settings like Cassibile's streets, pockets of untouched wilderness can be found. The hikers seem undeterred by the challenging terrain; instead, they embrace it wholeheartedly during their walking excursion. As we observe this historical moment frozen in time, we are reminded of simpler times when leisure activities were centered around exploring one's environment on foot. This image encapsulates the joy and freedom that comes with venturing into unknown territories while appreciating nature's wonders. Although little is known about these hikers or their journey through Cassibile's streets on that fateful day in 1913, Monteverde has managed to capture an essence beyond words within his photograph. His composition invites viewers to imagine themselves walking alongside these adventurers – feeling the cobblestones beneath our feet and breathing in the fresh air tinged with anticipation. This print not only documents a specific place at a specific point in history but also evokes emotions and memories associated with outdoor exploration and discovery. It serves as a timeless reminder for us all to embrace our inner wanderer and find solace amidst both familiar paths and uncharted roads alike.
