About the Item

Perso nell'immensità, 1955. Men and hats, in the streets of New York. Work sold in perfect condition, print on baryta paper 310 grs pigment inks of museum quality, limited edition of 5 copies The artwork is mounted on dibond and fixed in American floating box (black metal frame) Lost in the vastness of the city, this little man sitting against a building, probably a little busy alcohol, seems indifferent to this landscape without horizon, made of stones and steel. In his notes, the photographer specifies that he took this shot on a Monday morning, when the offices and stores. A desert vision of Manhattan that it's hard to imagine these days. During the 15 year period in which Fabrizio La Torre dedicated himself to photography, he travelled in Italy, Europe, North America and Asia. From wherever he went he brought back photos which depict the human condition, universal in meaning, full of emotions, with which he empathised. In order to make it easier for collectors and enthusiasts to get to grips with these works, we have opted for grouping together a set of 5 photos taken in a specific place under the heading “First Impressions”. Here, First Impressions of New York where Fabrizio La Torre spent between November and December 1955, during his 6 month trip to North America, which included Canada and California.
