Printing Details

In this poignant collection, photographer Frank Monaco captures a vanishing way of life in his mother's ancestral village in Southern Italy during the early 1950s. Through a blend of personal recollections and striking black-and-white photography, Monaco focuses on the resilience and daily lives of the village women. The work serves as both a private family pilgrimage and a significant sociological document of rural Molise in the post-war era.
