Description

Questa foto realizzata in analogico con pellicola HP5 tirata a 1600 asa è stata scattata a Viareggio negli anni ’70 e recuperata con scanner da foto 10x15 da me stampata all’epoca. Il personaggio è il mio amico Giancarlo , uno dei pochi rimasti in grado di disegnare ii ferro col martello, un’arte ( piu’ che un lavoro ) che va sparendo. This photo made in analog film to 1600 ASA HP5 tirade was taken at Viareggio in the 70s and was recovered with scanner 10x15 photo prints from me at the time. The character is my friend Giancarlo, one of the few still able to draw ii iron with a hammer, an art (up a job) that is disappearing. Buona giornata Thanks for looking and for previous comments

He's such a gift of Our Lord... Very nice and lively photo... my grandfather used to work with iron too. Lohaar (means Blacksmith) is our cast (family name).

E' vero... l'artista artigiano è quasi scomparso per lasciar posto alle produzioni in serie... più costose (anche se dovrebbe essere il contrario), ma meno belle! Grazie per aver fatto rivivere un pizzico di passato! ;) Ottima foto! :)

Il lavoro che ha questo uomo è senza dubbi molto arduo e duro, fantastica fotografa Mario, l'espressione nel viso lo dice tutto....!!!!

Blacksmithing is dying everywhere. I love watching the smithy work...it takes strength and great skill to work hot iron. Fabulous shot and the recovery was very successful!
