EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us to the Gallery of Modern Art in Rome, where a remarkable sculpture entitled "Proximus tuus" takes center stage. Created by Achille D'Orsi during the 19th century, this stunning piece portrays a farmer seated on the ground with a hoe placed between his legs. The artist's attention to detail is evident as every contour and expression on the farmer's face is meticulously captured. The image not only showcases this extraordinary sculpture but also provides a glimpse into one of the museum's rooms adorned with paintings hung on its walls. The juxtaposition of different art forms within this space creates an atmosphere that exudes creativity and inspiration. As we delve deeper into the photograph, we are drawn to examine various aspects of human life depicted here. The farmer represents hard work, resilience, and dedication associated with country life. His worn-out clothing tells stories of laborious days spent tending to crops while his trusty hoe symbolizes both tool and instrument for cultivating land. Beyond these tangible elements lies an exploration of psychological behavior and human psychology itself. D'Orsi masterfully captures a sense of melancholy sadness in the farmer's eyes, inviting viewers to ponder upon their own emotions and experiences. Additionally, details like footwear choices or headdress styles offer insights into fashion trends prevalent during that era – be it civilian, military or religious influences. Brogi Giacomo skillfully photographed this scene sometime between 1920-1930 ca. , providing us with a timeless snapshot frozen in time from over a century ago. This print serves as both documentation of historical artwork as well as an invitation for contemplation about our shared humanity across centuries.
