EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse of Milan's history in 1888, showcasing a "slum" near Porta Vittoria, formerly known as Porta Tosa. The image provides a raw and unfiltered look at the living conditions of the time, offering a stark contrast to the modern cityscape that Milan is known for today.
The dilapidated buildings and crowded streets depicted in the photograph tell a story of hardship and resilience, shedding light on the struggles faced by residents in this impoverished neighborhood. Despite the challenging circumstances, there is an undeniable sense of community visible in the faces of those captured in the frame.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from over a century ago, we are reminded of how far Milan has come since then. The city has undergone significant transformation and development, yet it is important to remember its past and honor those who once called these humble dwellings home.
Through this powerful image, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen in history - a reminder of where Milan began and how it has evolved into the vibrant metropolis it is today. It serves as a poignant reminder of our shared humanity and the enduring spirit that connects us across generations.
