EDITORS COMMENTS
Mount Vesuvius, with Torre de Creco (i.e. Torre del Greco), Naples, Italy. (ca. 1890-1900) This photograph print transports us back in time to the late 19th century, offering a picturesque view of Mount Vesuvius and the charming Italian town of Torre de Creco, also known as Torre del Greco, nestled at its foot. The image, rich in history and nostalgia, is a testament to the beauty and allure of Italy's ancient landscapes. Mount Vesuvius, an active stratovolcano, is one of the most famous and intriguing natural wonders in the world. Its iconic conical shape and the ever-present plume of smoke rising from its summit have long captured the imagination of travelers and artists alike. The volcano's last eruption, in 1944, caused widespread destruction but also led to the discovery of numerous ancient Roman ruins preserved in volcanic ash. Torre de Creco, located on the northwestern slopes of Mount Vesuvius, is a quaint and colorful town that has managed to maintain its traditional character despite the volcano's proximity. The town's name, which translates to 'Tower of the Greeks,' is a reminder of its ancient Greek origins. The photograph showcases the town's vibrant buildings, with their red-tiled rooftops and pastel facades, as they huddle together against the backdrop of the imposing volcano. This coloured photograph, likely produced using the photochrom process, adds an extra layer of charm to the scene. The rich, saturated colours bring the image to life, making it a delight to behold and a valuable addition to any collection of historical photographs or Italian art.
