Created between 1860 and 1880, the small, hand-tinted photograph captures the couple in a candid moment, their faces full of life and enjoyment. The woman, dressed in a colorful skirt, intently twirls strands of spaghetti onto her fork while the man, wearing a red cap and a white shirt, takes a swig of wine.
