EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the devastating aftermath of a landslide that struck Amalfi, the renowned Italian beauty spot. The destructive force of nature is evident as buildings lay in ruins and debris covers the once picturesque coastal town. Taken on 28 March 1924 by Central News, this monochrome image offers a haunting glimpse into a moment frozen in time. The scene depicted showcases the extent to which Amalfi has been partly destroyed, with its charm now marred by tragedy. Despite the devastation, there is an undeniable allure to this view of Amalfi's coast, reminding us of its former glory and inviting us to reflect on how fragile our surroundings can be. As we gaze upon this twentieth-century photograph from TopFoto's collection, we are transported back in time to witness history unfold before our eyes. It serves as a reminder that even places known for their natural beauty are not immune to unforeseen disasters. This Europeana photography captures more than just physical destruction; it encapsulates human resilience and strength amidst adversity. It prompts us to appreciate what remains while acknowledging the impermanence of our world.
