EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Borra Giuseppe and Betti Luigi, we are transported to the picturesque countryside of Tuscany in the 1960s. The image showcases a pair of mighty oxen standing proudly at the forefront, ready to plow a vast field. Their immense strength is evident as they prepare for another day's work on the fertile land. Behind these magnificent creatures, a row of majestic cypress trees stands tall against the horizon. These slender evergreens add an ethereal touch to the scene, their dark silhouettes contrasting beautifully with the open expanse of farmland. The presence of these iconic trees further emphasizes that we are indeed in Tuscany – a region renowned for its rolling hills and enchanting landscapes. This photograph encapsulates not only farming and country life but also evokes a sense of tranquility and harmony with nature. It reminds us of simpler times when agriculture was predominantly carried out through traditional methods like plowing with oxen. The composition skillfully captures both animate and inanimate elements: from the terrestrial mammals represented by the oxen to the stoic cypress trees that have witnessed generations come and go. Together, they create an idyllic tableau that transports us back in time while celebrating timeless aspects of rural life. As we gaze upon this print, we can almost feel ourselves immersed in this serene setting – breathing in fresh air scented with earthy soil while marveling at nature's beauty. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder that amidst our fast-paced modern lives, there is still solace to be found within nature's embrace – if only we take a moment to appreciate it.
