EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "A Lenten Custom, Rome" takes us back in time to the early 20th century and offers a glimpse into the rich cultural traditions of Italy. The print showcases a solemn scene during Holy Week, where a deacon is seen leading a procession through the streets of Rome. The image beautifully captures the essence of this age-old custom, as people gather around with reverence and devotion. The artist, G. S. Amato, skillfully portrays the symbolic significance of this event by highlighting every detail - from the intricately designed basilica in the background to the palm branches held by participants. Through this lithograph, we are transported to an era where customs and ceremonies were deeply ingrained in society's fabric. It serves as a window into not only religious practices but also Italian culture at large. This particular artwork was featured in "Customs of the World" published by Hutchinson in 1914. Its inclusion speaks volumes about its historical importance and recognition within ethnographic studies. As we admire this print from our private collection today, it reminds us that traditions have always played a vital role in shaping societies worldwide. It encourages us to appreciate diverse cultures and their unique customs while reflecting on our own heritage.
