EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Borra Giuseppe, we are transported back in time to the bustling streets of Tuscany during the years 1945-1950. The scene captures a moment frozen in history, as three carriages stand parked along a city street. The elegance and charm of these horse-drawn carriages is undeniable, evoking a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone. These magnificent terrestrial mammals, with their graceful presence and strength, were once the primary mode of transportation in cities across the world. As we gaze at this snapshot from the past, we can almost hear the clip-clop sound of hooves on cobblestone streets and imagine the lively conversations between passengers inside each carriage. The view extends beyond just these beautiful vehicles; it offers us a glimpse into daily life within this vibrant city. The composition is enhanced by an unexpected element - a beach umbrella positioned next to one of the carriages. This intriguing object adds an interesting contrast to our perception of time and place, hinting at leisurely days spent under sunny skies amidst urban surroundings. Borra Giuseppe's skillful capture not only showcases his artistic eye but also serves as a reminder that photographs have incredible power to transport us through time and space. As viewers, we become witnesses to history unfolding before our eyes. This remarkable photograph invites us to reflect on how methods of transportation have evolved over decades while reminding us that some things remain timeless – like capturing moments that tell stories without uttering a single word.
