Friday 56

"But the walls made the room extraordinary. Everywhere, there were photographs--in black-white and sepia, a few in poor quality, early color, all mounted in rough, homemade frames of pine and panel pins. Simple, almost naive in composition, they illustrated a rural life now extinct: men scything fields of grain; women stirring pans of goats' milk on a fire; a donkey being whipped to turn the grinding stones of an olive press; a chandler outside his shop; a fisherman holding up a pair of octopuses; men struggling...studying faces alive with character and settings which captured perfectly the landscape's soul."http://fredasvoice.com
