EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a rare glimpse into the past with the game of "carica l asino" from the late 16th century. The Italian School, known for their artistic prowess during this period, beautifully captures the essence of leisure and play in this artwork. Intriguingly, "carica l asino" translates to "load the donkey" hinting at an amusing and light-hearted game that was popular among Italians during that time. The image depicts players engaging in this lively activity, showcasing their skills and strategies while attempting to load items onto a donkey's back. The composition exudes a sense of joy and camaraderie as participants immerse themselves in this playful competition. One can almost hear laughter echoing through the air as they cheer each other on. Giancarlo Costa expertly captures every detail of this historical scene, allowing us to appreciate not only the beauty but also gain insight into pastimes enjoyed centuries ago. This particular print is part of a private collection, making it even more special and exclusive. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art, we are reminded that games have always been an integral part of human culture – providing entertainment, fostering social connections, and offering moments of respite from everyday life. It serves as a testament to our timeless desire for amusement and reminds us that some things truly transcend time itself.
