EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the notorious Sicilian gangster, Vito Cascio Ferro (1862-1945), seated alongside his young nephew in approximately 1920. The image showcases a glimpse into the early days of organized crime as Ferro, known for his involvement with the mafia, exudes an air of authority and power. His striking moustache and beard frame a face that reflects both wisdom and ruthlessness. Seated beside him is his nephew, who appears to be in awe of his infamous uncle. This juxtaposition between youth and experience highlights the intergenerational nature of criminal activities during this era. Intriguingly, a loyal pet dog stands by their side, symbolizing loyalty within this dangerous world they inhabit. A rifle rests against Ferro's leg, serving as a reminder of the violence that often accompanied his illicit endeavors. The composition is masterfully captured by an unknown photographer from the 1920s. It offers viewers a rare glimpse into the life of one of history's most feared mob bosses while also shedding light on familial ties within organized crime networks. This print serves as both an intriguing historical artifact and a testament to human fascination with figures like Vito Cascio Ferro - individuals whose lives straddle both lawlessness and notoriety.
