In the photo, there are two men – one about 60, the other 30 – a young woman and a child of about six all sitting on carved chairs at a table. Behind them is a window with thin, green curtains framing a clear view of a mountain. Three carved spoons hang on the wall, as does a painting similar to the view. Both men are wearing jackets over checked shirts; the woman is in a pink twin-set with a matching hairband underpinning her bouffant; and the child is in what seem to be dungarees.
On the table are glasses for water and wine, bread in a basket and two platters. One is covered with slices of salami, cheese and a heap of beans, and on the other is a small mountain of fried egg-sized tortei di patate, or potato fritters. The child has one in his hand, and is smiling. In fact, everyone is smiling. The picture is on page 67 of a 1971 magazine, Benvenuti a Trento (Welcome to Trento).
