EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Men and women eating and sitting at the tables of the Osteria Moderna in the environs of Rome" transports us back to a bygone era. Taken between 1900-1910, it offers a glimpse into the bustling social scene surrounding this popular eatery. The image captures a lively atmosphere as men and women gather around tables adorned with crisp tablecloths. The Osteria Moderna's patrons are engrossed in conversation, their animated gestures suggesting an engaging exchange of ideas. Amidst them, we notice various elements that add charm to the scene - elegant chairs, vintage kitchenwares, and even a furry companion resting under one of the tables. Both male and female figures can be seen dressed in traditional attire of the time. Women don delicate dresses while men sport jackets paired with hats or headdresses. These fashion choices reflect both civilian and military influences prevalent during that period. Intriguingly, there is also a tent-like structure visible in the background – perhaps hinting at an outdoor extension to accommodate more guests during peak hours. This movable architectural feature adds an element of uniqueness to this charming establishment. Brogi Giacomo's skillful composition allows us to appreciate not only the people but also their surroundings. The lush vegetation surrounding the Osteria adds freshness to this snapshot from history. Additionally, large tubs or vats serve as decorative objects within this rustic setting. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Alinari's collection, we are transported back in time; able to imagine ourselves among these diners enjoying good food amidst great company – truly capturing life's simple pleasures over a century ago.
