EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the timeless beauty of Piazza Vasari in Arezzo, Italy, as it looked in 1910. The square, named after the renowned Florentine artist and architect Giorgio Vasari, is a vibrant hub of activity, filled with the sounds, sights, and smells of local life. The photograph reveals a bustling scene, with horse-drawn carriages and people going about their daily business. The square is dominated by the imposing Palazzo Vasari, which looms in the background, its grand facade a testament to the rich history of this medieval hilltown in Tuscany. Arezzo, located in central Italy, has a long and storied past, with evidence of human habitation dating back to the Etruscan period. The city was an important center of the Roman Empire, and later became a major player in the medieval and Renaissance eras. Today, it is known for its beautiful architecture, art, and cultural traditions, including the famous Giostra del Saracino, a medieval jousting tournament held each year in June. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to a moment when horse-drawn carriages were still a common sight on the streets of Arezzo, and the square was a bustling center of activity. It is a reminder of the enduring beauty and rich history of this remarkable Italian town.
