EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "AVQ-A-000216-0071" takes us back in time to the enchanting city of Naples in 1902. The image captures a heartwarming moment as two young children indulge in a plate of spaghetti with their hands, showcasing the authentic Italian tradition that is deeply ingrained in Neapolitan culture. The innocence and joy radiating from these little ones are palpable. Their faces light up with delight as they savor each strand of pasta, completely oblivious to the world around them. It's an endearing sight that reminds us of the simple pleasures found in life's everyday moments. The composition is beautifully framed, focusing on the children seated on a tabouret stool against a rustic backdrop. This setting adds to the charm and authenticity of the scene, transporting us straight into their world. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this photograph holds significant anthropological value. It offers insights into historical customs and traditions surrounding food consumption during that era. The act of eating spaghetti with bare hands not only reflects cultural practices but also highlights how food connects people across generations. Taken by Esposito from Alinari, this postcard-sized print serves as a window into history – capturing not just an ordinary meal but also preserving memories and stories for future generations to appreciate. Its timeless quality makes it more than just an image; it becomes a portal through which we can explore Naples' rich heritage and folklore. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry frozen in time, let us be reminded of our shared humanity – where even something as simple as enjoying a plateful of pasta can bring immense happiness and create lasting memories for years to come.
