EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures "The Ciurlo Game" sculpture by Orazio Mochi, nestled in the enchanting Boboli Gardens of the Palazzo Pitti in Florence. The artwork itself dates back to the late 16th or early 17th century, showcasing a harmonious blend of Mannerism, Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods. In this outdoor scene, we witness a group of young men engrossed in an intriguing game. Their youthful energy is palpable as they engage with one another amidst the lush greenery of the garden. Each figure is meticulously carved, displaying intricate details that highlight both their individuality and physiological aspects. The artist's attention to clothing and fashion transports us back to a bygone era. The band around their jackets adds an air of sophistication while also serving as a reminder of societal norms during that time period. A wrapper lies discarded nearby, hinting at moments captured between rounds of play. "The Ciurlo Game" not only serves as a testament to European pastimes but also offers insight into the psychological aspects of youth and age. It reminds us that games have always been an integral part of human culture, providing joy and camaraderie across generations. Alinari Fratelli's skillful photography preserves this timeless moment from the early 20th century when it was taken. The image allows us to appreciate both the historical significance and artistic mastery behind Mochi's sculpture while immersing ourselves in the beauty of Florence's renowned Boboli Gardens.
