Robert Mac Pherson

Robert MacPherson spent his life wandering Rome’s back alleys with a clunky wooden camera, photographing crumbling walls and stray cats like they were old friends. He wasn’t interested in grand monuments, just the quiet corners where light hit just right. His photos feel alive because he’d wait hours for a shadow to move or a cat to pause.

See what he saw in Untitled (c.1850) on Gallery Tiles, where a single cracked doorway tells a whole story without a single person in sight.
