EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a group of Italian peasants engaged in the ancient Roman game of La Ruzzica, also known as La Rotuola, in the early 19th century. The men, dressed in traditional peasant attire, are seen intently focused on their game, their expressions reflecting a sense of enjoyment and camaraderie. The circular object at the center of their gathering is a heavy, hard wood disc, reminiscent of the Roman discus. La Ruzzica, a popular pastime in Italy, involved players taking turns to throw the disc as far as possible, with the winner being the one who threw it the greatest distance. This image offers a glimpse into the rich cultural traditions and customs of Italy during this period, providing a window into the leisure activities and simple pleasures of rural life. The game, with its ancient Roman origins, serves as a reminder of the enduring nature of human traditions and the joy they bring to communities.
