Rome, the Eternal City—the celebrated medieval painter and architect Giotto called it "the city of echoes, the city of illusions, and the city of yearning." Reflecting upon those three aspects of the Italian capital, the Observer recently visited an exhibition at the American Academy in Rome, on view through November 27, 2016, that charmingly brings these features to light.
"A View of One's Own—Three Women Photographers in Rome: Esther Boise Van Deman, Georgina Masson, Jeannette Montgomery Barron" presents the work of three foreign women from successive generations—an archeologist, a writer and an artist—who had very different approaches to photography and to documenting the Eternal City.
