Lo “Spirito del Natale Passato” è il primo dei tre fantasmi che appaiono a Scrooge nel racconto di Dickens “A Christmas Carol” e che, appunto, lo riporta ai Natali della sua lontana gioventù. La scatola Motta è stata “viaggiata” negli anni '30/'40 (la sede della ditta in via Carlo Alberto 32 indicata in indirizzo fu aperta nel 1925). A quell'epoca il panettone era ancora un lusso e solo le famiglie più facoltose potevano farselo spedire in occasione delle feste di fine anno. La scatola metallica degli anni '50/'60 è dello scatolificio Pagani di Lecco, non più esistente. Il bellissimo e adorabile fanciullo della foto…beh,… lasciamo perdere…--------------------------------- The "Spirit of Christmas Past" is the first of the three ghosts that appear in the story of Scrooge in Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" and that, in fact, brings him back to the Christmases of his distant youth. The Motta box has been shipped in the 30's/40's (the company headquarters in Via Carlo Alberto 32 indicated in address was opened in 1925). At that time the cake was still a luxury and only wealthy families could have it sent on the occasion of the festive season. The canister of the 50s/60s is the box factory Pagani of Lecco, which no longer exists. The beautiful and adorable child photo ... well ... never mind ...

Dear Alberto, I appreciate your skill that now does not surprise me anymore. I wonder, however, where you go to find all those objects, those little things that open the horizon of a past time, in some cases, memories of my early childhood, others in prose and poetry, the simple middle class of "Miss Felicity" of Gozzano and .... better if I stop here.
Bravo, and again happy birthday.
Paul

1000 Thanks Paul for the visit and the flattering comments, always friendly :-)
All of the photos are part of the objects ' "decor" of the house, mixed at the time according to the' occasion and lit by table lamps and floor lamps with times toward the ceiling.
In short, everything homemade and nothing professional.
I take advantage of the 'opportunity to make you my best wishes for the upcoming holidays now.
A cordial greeting
Alberto

I thank Fiorenzo :-), you're right, I avoided sparkles and sequins because the time spent has none, the memories are just memories ...
A happy Christmas for you too :-)

Hello Alberto,
the great merit of this file (already beautiful in itself and arricchiata the caption) is that it gives the feeling of being as "impressed" by the memories you have in mind and heart, transforming them into an image.
A warm wishes for a Merry New Year!

Thanks Mario for the great feedback you have given me :-); I tried to remember the 'atmosphere perhaps a bit naive of those years that you have already faced the rising consumerism and that anyone who has lived as a child brings into memory with a hint of regret.
I warmly reciprocate your good wishes very welcome for the 'impending New Year :-)

when you show these photos of "how we" make me want to cry. there is no object in this photo it's not perfect and done thinking about the beauty, born of talent and experience. your still life .. same story ;-) it takes nothing to make a banal collection of objects like these, and instead here are elegance and precision to win, as always. and the picture of the beautiful and adorable child is the perfect theme song for this occasion ;-) Alberto and a thousand congratulations greetings.
hello, GA

Thanks Simonetta (right?), Too kind; I did not mean to sadden anyone ;-), but simply revive the memories of what to 'start (see photo b / w) was a child of 3 or 4 years and now is starting to become a "unlike young" :-D sixty (almost 65 ... alas).
I thank you again for your flattering appreciation and warmly reciprocate the wishes for a Happy New Year.
