Top view of farmland with an irrigation ditch running through it. In Italian, these artificial channels are called rogge'. The high population density, the millennial agricultural activity, zootechnics and breeding have strongly conditioned and transformed the Italian territory. In non-urbanized areas, the agricultural landscape has replaced the natural landscape almost everywhere. Here we are in the Viterbo area (Lazio Maremma) in central Italy

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a top view of farmland with an intricate irrigation ditch meandering through it. In the enchanting Italian language, these man-made channels are referred to as 'rogge'. Italy's rich history of agricultural activity, coupled with its high population density, has significantly influenced and transformed the country's landscape. The millennia-old practices of agriculture, zootechnics, and breeding have left an indelible mark on the Italian territory. In non-urbanized regions like the Viterbo area in central Italy's Lazio Maremma, the natural landscape has been almost entirely replaced by this agricultural panorama. The parallel paths etched into ploughed soil create a mesmerizing pattern that stretches as far as the eye can see from this birds-eye perspective. The hydraulic works involved in constructing these irrigation canals demonstrate humanity's ingenuity in harnessing water resources for cultivating fertile lands. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into how humans have shaped their environment to sustain their livelihoods throughout history. With its stunning aerial viewpoint capturing every detail of this vast expanse of farmland intersected by watercourses, Marco Scataglini masterfully conveys both the beauty and impact of human intervention on nature. As we admire this image from above, we are reminded of our deep connection to land and our responsibility to preserve it for future generations.
