EDITORS COMMENTS
A Sotto Portico," translated as "Under the Portico," is a captivating photograph taken in Venice, Italy, in the year 1916. This evocative image, captured by the renowned British artist and photographer, Mortimer Menpes, invites us to step back in time and experience the enchanting allure of this historic city. The photograph portrays a narrow Venetian street, where the sun casts a warm, golden glow through the intricately carved shutters of the buildings. The portico, a characteristic architectural feature of Venice, serves as a protective canopy over the street, sheltering its inhabitants from the elements. The shutters, adorned with intricate designs and vibrant colors, add a touch of charm and character to the scene. The street is largely deserted, save for a few figures in the distance, adding to the sense of tranquility and serenity. The absence of modern distractions, such as cars and billboards, transport us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace. The historical significance of this photograph is further emphasized by the fact that it was taken during a period of great change for Venice. The First World War was in full swing, and the city, which had once been a major European power, was struggling to maintain its influence and prosperity. Despite the challenges, the beauty and charm of Venice continued to captivate artists and travelers alike, as evidenced by this stunning photograph by Mortimer Menpes. Overall, "A Sotto Portico" is a testament to the enduring allure of Venice and the power of photography to transport us to another time and place. The intricate details of the buildings, the warm glow of the sunlight, and the sense of history and tradition make this a photograph that is sure to captivate and inspire viewers for generations to come.
