EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the remarkable efforts of a group of Italian workmen as they transport a monumental triumph of Carrara quarrying through the bustling streets of Rome. Taken from "Our Wonderful World, Volume III" edited by J. A. Hammerton and published by The Amalgamated Press in London, this image showcases the incredible teamwork and determination required to move such an immense block of Carrara marble.

It exemplifies how ordinary working men can come together to achieve something truly exceptional. As we admire this monochrome masterpiece captured by GPA (possibly Sir John Alexander Hammerton himself), we are reminded that behind every great architectural marvel lies countless hours of laborious effort carried out by unsung heroes like these workmen. This image stands as a timeless tribute to their skillful craftsmanship, unwavering
