EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the timeless beauty of Forio, a charming fishing village on the island of Ischia in Italy, as it looked over a century ago. Dated 1904, the image transports us back in time to an era of simple pleasures and rustic charm. The quaint houses with their red-tiled roofs and shuttered windows cling to the steep hillside, cascading down to the shores of the Tyrrhenian Sea. Fishing boats, the lifeblood of the community, are moored in the harbor, their sails furled and nets drying in the sun. The village square, bustling with activity, is filled with locals going about their daily business, children playing, and vendors selling their wares. The volcanic landscape of Ischia, with its hot springs and thermal baths, has been a popular destination for travelers since ancient Roman times. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the history and culture of Forio and Ischia, providing a fascinating window into the past."
