EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "MFC-F-001670-0000" offers a nostalgic glimpse into the past. Taken around 1900 in Genoa's Sampierdarena district, it showcases a heartwarming portrait of the pupils from Foce nursery school. The image exudes an air of innocence and curiosity as these young students stand together, their faces filled with anticipation for what lies ahead. In the background, proudly waving in all its glory, is the iconic Italian flag. This subtle inclusion serves as a reminder of national pride and unity during that era. It symbolizes how education played a crucial role in shaping future generations who would contribute to Italy's growth and progress. The children featured in this photograph are dressed impeccably, reflecting both the fashion trends of the time and their scholastic environment. The girls wear delicate dresses adorned with frills and bows while donning aprons—a common attire for young female students back then. On the other hand, boys sport smart suits or shorts paired with knee-high socks—typical clothing choices for male children attending school at that period. Photographed by Queirolo—an artist whose attention to detail brings out each child's unique personality—this group portrait captures not only their physical appearance but also hints at their individual aspirations and dreams. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Alinari's collection, we can't help but be transported back to a time when education was valued above all else—a time when these innocent faces were just beginning to embark on life's journey full of hope and potential.
