Antica Rocca Di Carbonara Scrivia 1890

Giuseppe Barberis created "Antica Rocca Di Carbonara Scrivia," a window into Italy's layered past. Barberis, who lived through Italy's unification, captures more than just a building; he shows the passage of time and its impact on the architecture. The fortress embodies centuries of shifting power dynamics, while Italy was transitioning into modernity. The artist's choice to depict it with such detail encourages reflections on the legacies of those who inhabited and shaped the area. "What stories do these stones hold?" Barberis’s work evokes a sense of nostalgia, prompting us to consider our relationship to history and how we construct narratives around places and people. The image invites us to reflect on the forces that shape our identities and societies.
