this is a new set of then & now photos from one of my favourite vintage photo collectors Giuseppe Savini. he says,
This is a series of photos I took in Bologna. I thought it was a good idea … then they told me that similar work had already been done … and then I gave up everything. - translated from Italian
it’s true – i have seen these done before, but not with the focus on the people in the photos. i think it’s far more interesting than just seeing the place itself – especially when you view past people in context with present day people.
let’s not forget all the effort Giuseppe must have gone to to track down these spots. so awesome!
