The image depicts a historical black and white photograph of an old, dilapidated fortress named Rocca di Pietra Cassia. The ruins are shown amidst overgrown vegetation on what appears to be rocky terrain with some scattered boulders around the structure.
At the top left corner of the image is handwritten text "Orciatico," likely indicating a location or category related to the photo's origin or subject matter. Below, there is printed text in Italian that reads: "Rocca di Pietra Cassia" and below it another line stating “Roccevanti sultiuie iniu distintibaci tua amica belkstir onlaneni.” This appears to be a playful or whimsical misspelling, possibly intended as an inside joke among the people who created this postcard.
Further down is more printed text: "Prop. esclusiva di E Barecofi - Firenze 19260," suggesting that the image was owned by someone named E Barecofi from Florence in the year mentioned. This indicates a possible publishing or ownership context for the photograph, possibly tied to historical documentation.
The overall condition of this postcard shows signs of age and wear, with some discoloration visible on its surface indicating it has been handled over time. The image is part of a series likely created during an earlier period in history when such photographs were popular as keepsakes or for historical records.
