In her mid 30s, Maria was taken by the goddess who causes the soul to forget her life, on the way to her afterlife, at the river of the same name, Lethe. Stagliano’s bronze of them stands in the monumental cemetery of Turin and has done for nearly a century, where I photographed them in 2017. “Lethe takes Maria Ossola, 1920, after Stagliano” 1/30/19 26 x 39″ (67 x 100 cm)
