Literature

A. Crawford (edited by), Mario Giacomelli, Phaidon, London, 2001, p. 225
So much has been said and written about the photographer from Senigallia Mario Giacomelli that even those who have never really been interested in photography are familiar with him. So, in front of those landscapes engraved like ancient writing, those peasants who live with love the land they inhabit, those seminarians born to interpret the words of a poem, nothing remains but the wonder of vision.
