Mario Giacomelli (1925–2000) - Mia moglie

Mario Giacomelli — Mia Moglie, 1955 An intimate portrait of Giacomelli’s wife, Mia Moglie stands at the emotional beginning of his visual autobiography. Her direct gaze, the gathered gesture of her hands and the luminous white shirt transform a private encounter into an enduring image of affection and memory. The restrained setting leaves nothing between photographer and sitter: the loved person becomes both a presence in the artist’s life and the origin of his inward-looking vision. The photograph’s significance extends beyond its personal subject. Its publication history includes Mario Giacomelli, edited by Alistair Crawford, Phaidon, London, 2001, p. 407, a reference also documented in Finarte’s catalogue entry for Mia Moglie, 1955.
