EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us to the bustling streets of Naples in the late 19th century. The image captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the life of A Maruzzaro, a seller of snails. In this snapshot, we see A Maruzzaro standing proudly behind his makeshift stand, which is adorned with baskets filled to the brim with these slimy delicacies. His weathered face tells tales of hardship and resilience as he navigates through life as an itinerant vendor. The architectural backdrop adds depth to the scene, highlighting both the poverty-stricken conditions that many faced during this era and the vibrant spirit that thrived amidst adversity. It serves as a reminder of how commerce and trade were intertwined with society and politics at that time. Snails, gasteropods mollusks commonly known for their slow pace, take center stage in this composition. These humble creatures symbolize not only sustenance but also survival in times when resources were scarce. As we gaze upon this portrait from Alinari's collection, we are transported back to an era where eating habits differed greatly from our own. This print invites us to reflect on how diets have evolved over time while shedding light on social conditions prevalent during that period. Through its stark imagery and attention to detail, this photograph encapsulates not just a single individual or object but rather an entire epoch defined by struggle and perseverance. It serves as a powerful testament to human resilience against all odds.
