EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "MFC-A-004638-0002" we are transported back in time to witness a picturesque scene near Rome. The date of the photo, 16th November 1914, adds an air of historical significance to the image. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly two riders on horseback, gracefully navigating their way through Cento Celle. Their elegant presence against the backdrop of farmland countryside creates a striking contrast between man and nature. These majestic creatures, terrestrial mammals known for their strength and beauty, symbolize freedom and adventure. As we delve deeper into the details captured by photographer Paolo Lucchesi from Alinari, it becomes apparent that this moment depicts more than just a leisurely ride. It portrays a walking excursion filled with games and pastimes enjoyed by individuals from different social classes. One cannot help but notice the jockey-like attire worn by one rider, suggesting his involvement in equestrian sports or perhaps even work related to horses. His portrait exudes confidence and skill as he expertly guides his noble steed along the path. The landscape itself holds its own charm - rolling hills stretching out into the distance create an idyllic setting for this encounter between man and animal. This snapshot freezes time within a world where society and politics were undergoing significant changes. Lucchesi's masterful composition allows us to appreciate not only the physicality of these magnificent animals but also offers insight into Italian culture during that era. Without mentioning any commercial use associated with this artwork, we can simply marvel at how such images transport us across time while preserving moments forever etched in history.
