EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Mario Gabinio, we are transported back in time to the bustling Porta Palazzo market in Turin. The image depicts a young woman standing amidst a sea of vibrant produce, her presence commanding attention. With one hand firmly grasping a large pumpkin and the other holding an abundant bunch of celery, she exudes strength and vitality. The market's lively atmosphere is palpable as shoppers go about their daily routines, but it is this young woman who steals the spotlight. Her striking portrait showcases not only her beauty but also her connection to nature's bounty. The artist skillfully captures every detail - from the delicate veins on each leafy stalk of celery to the rough texture of the pumpkin's skin - emphasizing both their individuality and collective power. As we gaze at this remarkable composition, we cannot help but be reminded of the importance of fresh vegetables in our lives. They symbolize sustenance, health, and nourishment for both body and soul. Through his lens, Gabinio invites us to appreciate these humble yet essential elements that sustain us. Although taken nearly a century ago between 1925-1935, this photograph remains timeless in its ability to captivate viewers across generations. It serves as a poignant reminder that while times may change and markets may evolve, there will always be something enchanting about witnessing humanity's interaction with nature's abundance. Gabinio’s work transcends mere documentation; it becomes art that speaks directly to our senses and emotions. This particular print reminds us not only of Turin’s rich history but also celebrates the enduring beauty found within everyday life – where even something as simple as a young woman clutching vegetables can evoke wonderment and inspire contemplation about our place in this world.
