EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "AVQ-A-000140-0121" we are transported back in time to the early 20th century. The image features a postcard-sized portrait of a woman, elegantly posed in a dressing room while engrossed in her reading. The photograph is part of the renowned "Album para Tarjetas postales" collection, capturing moments of everyday life and leisure activities. The scene exudes an air of sophistication and refinement, as indicated by the tasteful furnishings surrounding the woman. A plush sofa takes center stage, providing comfort for both relaxation and intellectual pursuits. A decorative screen adds an element of privacy to the intimate space, enhancing the sense of seclusion within this sanctuary. The woman's fashion choices reflect the trends prevalent during that era. She wears a shawl delicately draped over her shoulders, adding an extra layer of elegance to her ensemble. Her hairdo showcases meticulous styling and attention to detail, further emphasizing her refined taste. This portrait not only captures a moment frozen in time but also offers us glimpses into pastimes enjoyed by women during this period. Reading was considered both an educational pursuit and a form of entertainment for many individuals at that time. As we admire this remarkable photograph taken around 1910 by Fialdro from Alinari, we are reminded once again how images can transport us across generations and allow us to appreciate different aspects of history – be it through fashion choices or cultural practices such as reading for pleasure.
