These two photographs of the sculpture garden at Villa Tritone, Sorrento were taken by Norbert van den Berg, sometime in the middle of the last century. The textures, the way the light and dark intertwine, it’s all about how the camera's eye sees the world. Look at the first picture, the statue is half-hidden, like a secret. Then, over to the right, the statue almost melts into the background. It's not about sharp details, it's about feeling the place, the light filtering through the leaves, the quiet stillness of the garden. Van den Berg isn’t trying to show you every detail, he's giving you a mood. Think about Atget, another photographer who captured the spirit of a place. It's like they're both saying, "Here's a glimpse, now dream the rest." Art isn't about answers, it's about opening doors in your mind.
