EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a glimpse of the intriguing world of Ushcocci pirates living in Dalmatia. The unknown artist skillfully portrays this group of individuals who were known for their daring exploits on the high seas. In this image, we see a woman dressed in traditional costume diligently working at her weaving metier, showcasing her craftsmanship and dedication. Beside her stands a man, perhaps a fellow pirate or corsair, his presence exuding an air of mystery and adventure. The backdrop reveals various elements that hint at life in Dalmatia during that time period - from the Balkans to Croatia. The loom itself symbolizes not only the woman's occupation but also represents the intricate web these pirates wove as they navigated through treacherous waters. As we delve into this historical photograph, it is important to note that these Ushcocci pirates were considered malefactors by some and heroes by others. They challenged authority and disrupted trade routes while leaving behind a legacy shrouded in folklore. Giancarlo Costa expertly presents us with this snapshot frozen in time, allowing us to reflect upon an era where lawlessness clashed with bravery on the Adriatic Sea. This artwork serves as a reminder of our fascination with those who defy societal norms and embark on extraordinary journeys beyond what is deemed acceptable.
