EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken in Naples, Italy in 1904, transports us back in time to an era of horse-drawn carriages, cobblestone streets, and the vibrant energy of daily life in the historic city. The image, titled "Napoli, Naples, Italy," captures the bustling scene at the Piazza del Plebiscito, a grand square located in the heart of Naples. The square, named after the plebiscite that made Naples part of the Kingdom of Italy in 1860, is home to several iconic landmarks, including the Royal Palace and the Basilica of San Francesco di Paola. In the foreground of the photograph, a horse-drawn carriage, adorned with intricate details and ornate decorations, waits patiently for its next fare. The driver, dressed in traditional Neapolitan attire, sits atop the carriage, holding the reins and engaging in conversation with a passerby. The scene is filled with a sense of activity, as people go about their daily business, children play in the streets, and vendors sell their wares. The photograph also showcases the architectural beauty of Naples, with its grand buildings, ornate balconies, and colorful facades. The clear blue sky and bright sunlight add to the sense of warmth and vitality that permeates the scene. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Naples, a city that continues to captivate visitors with its unique charm and character. The photograph, which is part of the extensive collection of historical images available from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past and provides a valuable record of the history and culture of Naples during the early 20th century.
