EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "CAD-S-060006-0007" we are transported back in time to an enchanting excursion to the mill Varlungo. The date of the photograph, 09-10/04/1933, adds a touch of historical significance to this mesmerizing image captured by Aurelio Monteverde. The focal point of the picture is a striking portrait of a woman, her face exuding both strength and grace. Her eyes seem to hold countless stories as she gazes into the distance with an air of quiet contemplation. Dressed in traditional rural attire, she embodies the spirit and resilience of those living amidst nature's embrace. Surrounded by the rustic charm of a watermill, its weathered wooden structure stands tall against the backdrop of rolling hills. This architectural marvel serves as a testament to human ingenuity harmoniously blending with natural landscapes. Its presence evokes feelings of nostalgia for simpler times when life revolved around such structures that sustained entire communities. As our gaze wanders beyond the mill, we notice an old house nestled among verdant fields - perhaps once home to generations past. It stands as a symbol not only of shelter but also represents cherished memories woven within its walls. The woman clutches onto her leather bag tightly while holding onto a bottle - objects that hint at her daily routine or personal belongings. These simple possessions serve as reminders that even in remote corners like Varlungo, lives were lived fully and purposefully. Monteverde's masterful composition captures not just one individual but encapsulates an entire era marked by resilience and simplicity. Through his lens, he invites us on this visual journey where every detail tells its own story - stories waiting patiently for us to unravel their mysteries.
