JOHN WILLIAMS “Theme from Il Postino,” Pittsburgh Symphony with Itzhak Perlman. The film was made in Italy, near Naples, although the original novel, about the poet Pablo Neruda, was set in Chile. It is a wonderful movie which was released in 1994 and won “best picture” and “best music” Academy Awards in 1996
Pablo Neruda:
“Take bread away from me, if you wish,
take air away, but
do not take from me your laughter.”

The sculpture pays homage to the wild boar which is the favorite prey of hunters in Tuscany. They go out on hunts with their dogs.
In some parts of Italy, the wild boar go tearing through the vineyards causing damage.
After the hunt the town’s families get together to drink the local wine such as Chianti or Brunello. The boar meat is slow cooked for stew or for pasta with boar sauce containing morsels of tender meat.
