EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the bustling Piazza Erminio Ferretto, formerly known as Piazza Umberto I, in Mestre, Venice. Taken around 1935, it offers a glimpse into the vibrant urban life of this historic Italian city. The focal point of the image is a majestic street lamp that stands tall amidst its surroundings. Its elegant design adds a touch of grandeur to the scene while illuminating the busy square below. The lamp's warm glow casts intriguing shadows on the exterior furnishings for civic spaces that line the piazza. Intricately adorned buildings with crenelated details frame this lively square, showcasing exquisite architecture from another era. Each structure tells a story through its unique decoration and sections, giving us a glimpse into Venetian history. A prominent feature within this snapshot is an ornate clock tower rising above everything else. This instrument of time serves as both a practical tool and an artistic element that enhances the overall charm of this picturesque setting. As we explore further into this vintage scene, our eyes are drawn to various modes of transportation present at that time. Automobiles make their way along roads lined with bicycles ridden by individuals going about their daily routines. This dynamic street scene captures not only movement but also provides insight into how people traveled during those times. Through Alinari's lens and under an unidentified author's guidance, we are transported back in time to experience Venice Mestre as it was in 1935 – alive with activity and brimming with architectural beauty.
