EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Alberto Pizzoli, we are transported to the vibrant city of Rome on December 20,2014. The image showcases Italian diver Marco Fois, aged 52, as he trains at the gym in Foro Italico. Clad in his figure-hugging black speedos, Fois stands ready to partake in a unique New Year's tradition - diving into the murky waters of Rome's legendary Tiber river. As one of four brave Italians who strip off and take the plunge from Cavour bridge each year on January 1st, Fois is met with wild cheers from enthusiastic crowds gathered along the riverbanks. This annual spectacle has become a beloved event for locals and tourists alike. Pizzoli's photograph perfectly captures both the determination etched across Fois' face and the anticipation that fills the air. The composition highlights not only Fois but also offers a glimpse into Rome's architectural beauty with its iconic bridges spanning over the historic Tiber River. Through this snapshot frozen in time, we witness an individual preparing to embrace tradition and embark on an exhilarating journey that symbolizes hope and renewal for the coming year. It serves as a reminder of how cultural customs can unite communities while celebrating their unique spirit. This remarkable print encapsulates Italy’s rich heritage and showcases Pizzoli’s talent for capturing fleeting moments filled with emotion and significance.
