La foto ritraeva una giovane e graziosa ragazza su una grù che serviva per l’estrazione del marmo, a quei tempi Trani era abbastanza famosa anche per questo. Il giovane si incuriosì e chiese in giro se qualcuno la conoscesse. Certo gli risposero degli abitanti del paese, “è la figlia di Giovanni, quello delle cave di marmi”. Determinato decise quindi di riportare la fotografia ritrovata a quella bella ragazza. Fu così che si conobbero e dopo neanche tre mesi decisero di sposarsi, si trasferirono nella città di Milano ed esattamente un anno dopo nel 1958 nacqui io. Quei due giovani ritratti sono i miei genitori.

I have a lot to do with Photography, among the varius reasons this is the most important.
It was 1957 when a young boy returning to his native country for a short vacation, left the station to go home, found a black and white photo on the ground along the way. The picture depicted a young and pretty girl on a crab that was used for the extraction of marble; in those days Trani was also quite famous for this. The young man was curious and asked around if someone knew her. Certainly they answered the inhabitants of the country, "It is the daughter of John, that of the marble quarries." Curious then decided to bring the photograph back to that beautiful girl. So they met and after three months they married, they moved to the city of Milan and exactly one year later in 1958 I was born. Those two young men are my parents.

Nella luce giusta, viviamo momenti belli, perfetti.
