An iconographic evolution of the first issues of Ethnoflorence on the web dated 2008-2010

In the posts of the first years of this site – (we are talking about the period between 2008 and 2010) – the photos in our archive were used to start the editorial adventure of Ethnoflorence, a selection from it, it’s still published by us after 12 years. Times and the web have changed profoundly in the meantime, and our editorial line has evolved over the years, but we still believe in the expressive and educational power of these materials.
