EDITORS COMMENTS
On New Year's Day, a candid glimpse into the intimate and somewhat peculiar scene unfolds within this photograph. In the comfort of his bedroom, a man clad in cozy pajamas and donning a night cap rises from his slumber with an urgent need. The man, seemingly unwell, reaches for his night vase to relieve himself from an unsettling bout of nausea. As our eyes wander beyond the distressed figure, we encounter an unexpected juxtaposition. Above the man's bed hangs a portrait of a stoic legionary, evoking thoughts of strength and resilience amidst vulnerability. This intriguing choice of decor raises questions about the man's fascination with history or perhaps serves as inspiration during moments of weakness. The walls surrounding this private space bear witness to another layer of history through graffiti dating back to 1873. These faded markings tell stories untold; they whisper secrets shared between past inhabitants who once called this apartment on Clock Street their home. Captured by Leonard de Selva in 2008, this photograph invites us to reflect on life's fleeting moments and the complexities that lie beneath its surface. It reminds us that even in our most vulnerable states, there is beauty to be found – whether it be in historical relics or personal introspection.
