EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a remarkable piece of art from the 1930s, created by the renowned firm of Lenci in Italy. The focal point of the image is a delightful arrangement featuring colored mushrooms and an enchanting gnome, all meticulously crafted out of cloth. This whimsical creation exemplifies the exceptional craftsmanship that Lenci was known for during this era. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring these fabric-made objects to life, evoking a sense of magic and fantasy. Each mushroom seems to have its own personality, with unique shapes and hues that add to their charm. The gnome, with his mischievous expression and playful pose, adds an element of wonderment to the composition. Dating back almost a century ago, this artwork provides us with a glimpse into the rich history of toy styles and movements before 1945. It represents not only a form of entertainment but also serves as an artistic expression within the realm of games and pastimes. Photographed sometime between 1980-1990 by Graziella Pellicci, this print captures both the timeless beauty of Lenci's creation as well as Pellicci's skill in preserving its essence through her lens. The juxtaposition between old-world charm and contemporary photography techniques creates an intriguing visual narrative that transcends time. As we admire this extraordinary piece captured on film, let us appreciate how it embodies international art in the early 20th century while reminding us that creativity knows no boundaries or limitations – even when expressed through toys like puppets or dolls.
