EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures the picturesque Italian town of Sorrento, nestled along the Amalfi Coast. The image focuses on two notable landmarks: The Lace House and the Imperial Hotel Tramontano. The Lace House, or La Casa del Merletto in Italian, is a charming shop and emporium renowned for its intricate and beautiful lacework. Established in the early 1900s, this establishment has been a beloved destination for tourists and locals alike for over a century. The lace, made by local artisans, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Sorrento and the surrounding region. The delicate patterns and exquisite craftsmanship showcased in this photograph are a must-see for anyone visiting this magical place. In the background, the Imperial Hotel Tramontano, a historic five-star hotel, stands proudly overlooking the harbor. This grand establishment, built in the late 1800s, has been a symbol of luxury and elegance for generations. Its beautiful gardens, terraces, and breathtaking views of the Bay of Naples have attracted famous guests such as Greta Garbo, Winston Churchill, and the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. An inset photograph in the bottom right corner of the print reveals two additional Sorrento landmarks: the House where the great Italian poet Torquato Tasso was born and the bustling port. The House of Tasso, or Casa di Torquato Tasso, is a significant historical site, as it is where the renowned poet was born in 1544. The port, with its colorful fishing boats and vibrant market scene, offers a glimpse into the daily life of this enchanting town. This photograph, taken circa 1910, transports us back in time to a place of beauty, history, and tradition. The Lace House, Imperial Hotel Tramontano, and the other landmarks depicted in this image continue to captivate visitors from around the world, making Sorrento a truly unforgettable destination.
