EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming print captured by Laszlo Balogh, a curious pig playfully pokes its nose through a hole in a fence in the picturesque eastern Hungarian village of Alattyan. The image transports us to a simpler time, evoking feelings of nostalgia and rural tranquility. The significance of this village goes beyond its idyllic scenery. It holds historical ties to the family of French presidential candidate Nicolas Sarkozy. The estates owned by Sarkozy's family were located here, and his father, Pal Sarkozy, spent many summers in Alattyan during the 1930s and 1940s. This connection adds an intriguing layer to the story behind this humble yet captivating photograph. The pig itself becomes symbolic as it represents both curiosity and resilience. Despite being confined within the boundaries of the fence, it boldly ventures out into unknown territory with its snout leading the way. Its innocent exploration reminds us that even amidst political ambitions or societal expectations, there is always room for curiosity and discovery. Through Balogh's lens, we are reminded to appreciate life's simple pleasures found in unexpected places - like witnessing a playful pig poking its nose through a hole in an old wooden fence. This image serves as a gentle reminder that beauty can be discovered anywhere if we take the time to look closely enough.
