EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the 15th century and immersed in a world of fables and hidden secrets. The image depicts a search man cleverly concealed within a miniature tree trunk, taken from a German translation of Bidpais' "Kalila (Calila) and Dimna" fables. The unknown artist skillfully captures the essence of suspense and intrigue as the search man evades capture. With his body contorted to fit inside the tiny space, he becomes one with nature, blending seamlessly into the botanical surroundings. It is an arresting scene that leaves us wondering about his story - what crime has he committed? What fate awaits him? This illuminated manuscript transports us to an era where literature was cherished and storytelling held great power. The intricate details on display showcase not only the talent of the artist but also their dedication to bringing these ancient tales to life. Luisa Ricciarini's expert curation allows us access into this mesmerizing world through her photography. Through her lens, we can appreciate both the medium age craftsmanship and timeless themes present in this piece.
