EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "PDC-F-001152-0000" we are transported back in time to the ancient city of Pompeii. The image captures a bustling scene at the iconic 'Porta Ercolano' and via consolare, offering us a glimpse into the daily life of this remarkable archaeological site. The photograph is dated between 1870 and 1890, but it showcases an era much older than that. Dating back to the first century BC, Pompeii was frozen in time by the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. This snapshot allows us to witness both history and its preservation. At the forefront of the picture stands a custodian dressed in uniform, diligently carrying out his duties as caretaker of this treasured gateway into antiquity. Alongside him is a man dressed in civilian clothes, adding an intriguing dynamic to the scene. Their presence brings life and movement to what would otherwise be considered ruins. Beyond their figures lies a mesmerizing view of Pompeii's architectural wonders - roads winding through ancient sites, excavations revealing hidden treasures, monuments standing tall against all odds. Each element tells its own story within this vast archeological landscape. This artwork by Brogi from Alinari not only captures our attention with its historical significance but also offers insights into fashion and clothing styles prevalent during that period. The attire worn by both men reflects their respective roles - one donning a uniform for work while another embraces contemporary fashion trends. As we gaze upon this extraordinary photograph print, we are reminded of Pompeii's enduring legacy as one of humanity's most significant archaeological discoveries. It serves as a testament to our fascination with uncovering fragments from our past while inspiring awe for those who dedicated themselves to preserving these invaluable remnants for generations to come.
