1853


In the very early days of photography, some clever folks photographed art, particularly sculpture.  No worries about a statue staying still for those impossibly long exposures.  It is a relief of men hunting wild boar, and one of the hunters has been injured.  Both the photographer and the original sculptor are unknown.  Disclosure:  I removed severe yellowing from this one.

  1. + cinghiali, un tema popolare nell'antichità e di nuovo nell'arte rinascimentale.
