EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history from Milan, Italy in 1932. A group of boys can be seen fishing in a sewer, their faces filled with alarm as they are surrounded by rats. The scene is both intriguing and slightly unsettling, offering a glimpse into the daily lives of young boys during this time period.
The contrast between the innocence of childhood pastimes like fishing and the grim reality of living near rats in the sewer creates a sense of tension in the image. It serves as a reminder that even in seemingly ordinary moments, there can be unexpected challenges and dangers lurking just beneath the surface.
The black and white composition adds to the historical feel of the photograph, transporting viewers back to a different era where life was simpler yet perhaps more precarious. The expressions on the boys' faces tell a story of surprise and fear, highlighting their vulnerability in an environment that is far from ideal for recreation.
Overall, this print is not only visually striking but also thought-provoking, prompting us to consider how our surroundings shape our experiences and perceptions. It serves as a poignant reminder of how history can be captured through everyday moments that reveal deeper truths about human nature and resilience.
