EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of renowned painter Primo Conti (1900-1988) alongside his beloved family in their home in Fiesole. Taken between 1941 and 1942, this timeless image showcases a scene filled with joy, games, and pastimes. In the foreground stands Primo Conti himself, a distinguished figure exuding wisdom that comes with old age. His weathered face tells tales of countless hours spent perfecting his craft, while his eyes sparkle with an unmistakable passion for art. Dressed impeccably in attire befitting a man of his stature, he embodies both elegance and creativity. Beside him stand members of his cherished family - a testament to the importance of love and support throughout one's journey. The youthful energy emanating from them contrasts beautifully against Primo's seasoned presence. Each individual seems engrossed in their own activities; some engaged in conversation or laughter while others focus intently on knitting, embroidery, or sewing. The composition not only captures the physical aspects but also delves into the physiological and psychological dimensions present within this intimate moment frozen in time. It speaks volumes about the intricate relationship between work and vocation as well as how it intertwines with personal life. Photographer Balocchi Vincenzo has masterfully immortalized this remarkable tableau through careful attention to detail and composition. This print serves as a tribute to Primo Conti's artistic legacy while simultaneously offering us glimpses into the private world he shared with those closest to him. As we gaze upon this extraordinary photograph, we are reminded that behind every great artist lies a network of loved ones who provide unwavering support – nurturing both their talent and spirit alike.
