EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Busy view of Plata Ippokratous, Rhodes" transports us back to the bustling streets of Rhodes in 1936. The image captures a vibrant scene filled with life and activity. In the foreground, a magnificent fountain stands as the centerpiece of this urban landscape. Its intricate design and flowing water add an element of tranquility amidst the chaos. Surrounding it are various pieces of outdoor furniture, providing comfortable seating for those seeking respite from their busy day. As we move our gaze further into the frame, we are greeted by an impressive arch that leads to a grand building adorned with decorative elements. The architecture showcases dome-shaped cupolas and elegant windows that allow natural light to flood its interior spaces. A loggia extends along one side of the building, creating a covered arcade where people can stroll or engage in lively conversations. The square or piazza is alive with action - pedestrians walk briskly across its cobblestone paths while others gather in small groups engaging in animated discussions. The street scene is teeming with energy as cars pass by and horse-drawn carriages make their way through the city's thoroughfares. From this vantage point, we get a panoramic view of Rhodes' charming cityscape; rows upon rows of buildings stretch out into the distance, showcasing architectural diversity and reflecting different eras throughout history. Alinari Fratelli masterfully captured not only a moment frozen in time but also conveyed the essence of daily life during this era. This photograph serves as both a historical document and an artistic representation that allows us to immerse ourselves in the vibrant atmosphere that once graced Plata Ippokratous – truly capturing Greece's rich cultural heritage within every frame.
