"19 Pictures 22 Recipes”, by Paola Ferrario, is a meditation on food, photography, and human capability. Selecting from a personal archive of pictures found at flea markets and antique shops around the world, Ferrario attaches to each image a brief story or memoir, and concludes each entry with a recipe. Mainly family recipes gathered from Ferrario’s Italian childhood, these are simple foods that anyone with the wish to do so can prepare. Paola wrote and photographed the Cooking with Grandmothers piece on Ambrogina, her grandmother. You can purchase the book on her website, here.
