EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "BBA-F-000820-0000" we are transported back in time to the 1950s, where we find ourselves inside a train compartment. The focus of the image is on two nuns who sit opposite each other, engrossed in their reading material. The scene exudes an air of tranquility and serenity as these devoted women immerse themselves in their spiritual pursuits amidst the hustle and bustle of travel. Their presence evokes a sense of reverence and devotion, reminding us of the profound commitment they have made to their faith. Dressed in traditional religious attire, these nuns exemplify simplicity and modesty through their clothing choices. Their habits serve as a visual representation of their dedication to God and symbolize their renunciation of worldly desires. While the world outside may be filled with distractions and temptations, these nuns remain steadfast in their devotion by engaging in quiet contemplation during this journey. It is evident that even within the confines of a train compartment, they create an atmosphere conducive to prayerful reflection. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also offers us a glimpse into the lives led by those who have chosen religious vocation. Through Borra Giuseppe's lens, we witness how spirituality can transcend physical boundaries and permeate every aspect of life. "BBA-F-000820-0000" serves as a poignant reminder that amidst our fast-paced modern world, there are individuals like these nuns who continue to prioritize introspection and seek solace through faith.
