EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Pavlin Fran from Alinari, we are transported back in time to the tumultuous era of the First World War. The image depicts a postcard of Caporetto, showcasing a mesmerizing view of the city's architectural wonders and religious landmarks. At first glance, our eyes are drawn to a charming house nestled amidst the bustling streets. Its sturdy structure stands as a testament to resilience and endurance during times of conflict. The intricate details adorning its facade hint at an era long gone, evoking nostalgia for simpler times. Dominating the skyline is a magnificent bell tower that proudly reaches towards the heavens. A symbol of faith and spirituality, it serves as a reminder that even in times of war, people found solace in their religious beliefs. Its presence adds depth and character to this picturesque scene. As our gaze wanders further into the distance, we are treated to an expansive view of Caporetto itself. The cityscape stretches out before us like an open book filled with stories waiting to be discovered. Each building tells its own tale - tales of love, loss, hope, and resilience etched into every brick. Fran's masterful composition captures not just physical structures but also emotions woven within them – joyous celebrations held on these streets or tearful farewells bid by loved ones departing for battlefields afar. This remarkable print transports us back in time and allows us to witness history through Pavlin Fran's lens. It reminds us that even amidst chaos and destruction brought about by war; beauty can still be found – both in architecture standing tall against adversity and in humanity's unwavering spirit seeking solace within sacred places.
