E tu ana a Phil Williams i te patio o tona kainga i Telegraph Hill, San Francisco, i te taha o tana whakapakoko o te atua o Roma a Fortuna.
I a Amey Papitto kaitoi whenua e whakareri ana mo te San Francisco Artists Guild Fair i Washington Square Park i te ata o te Ratapu, ka mau tona kanohi i tetahi ahua e wiri ana i runga i te tuanui o Telegraph Hill i te ritenga atu o te papa.
“He rite ki te wahine he marara hei tiaki i a ia i te hau,” te korero a Papito. Ua ite oia e te tere noa ra te maru no te huti i to'na ara-maite-raa i ni'ai te vahi i rotopu i te iri teitei o te Ekalesia a te Feia Mo'a Petero e o Paulo e te Coit Tower i nia i te aivi.
I waenganui i enei tirohanga e rua, ko te ahua kua kahakina te hiahia ki te rangi i te wa o te tupuhi o te takurua, a mena ka taea e Papitto te wehe atu i te whakaaturanga toi me te whai i tana hiahia ki roto i te papa, na roto i te rarangi o te ata o te Rātapu i te whare o tona mama, te tini kai. ka heke ki Greenwich— te huarahi ki Grant, ka mohio ia ki a Phil Williams i runga o te whare o runga puke.
Ko Wiremu, he tangata mahi miihini a-iwi kua reti, i hanga he whakapakoko o te atua wahine Roma a Fortuna ki konei, he tauira o te mea i kitea e ia i te Grand Canal i Venice. I hanga e ia he tauira me te whakanoho ki runga i tona tuanui i te marama o Hui-tanguru, na te mea i mahara ia kei te hiahia tana taone hou ki te whakahou.
"Ko nga tangata katoa i San Francisco kei te mau tonu me te pouri," ko te whakamarama a Williams, 77, ki nga kairipoata e patoto ana ki tona tatau. "Kei te pirangi te tangata ki tetahi mea ahua pai me te whakamahara ki a ratou he aha ratou i noho ai ki San Francisco i te tuatahi."
Ko te tikanga he tohu huarere, he mea hanga te mahi toi ki runga i te manequin ahua-whakaata me wehe kia eke ki te 60 kaupae o te arawhata tino whaiti o te Whare Wiremu nga papa e toru i muri mai i te ru i te tau 1906. Kia eke ki runga i te papa o te tuanui, ka utaina ki runga i te pouaka e wha-waewae te teitei kua mau ki runga ki te papaarangi e taea ai te huri i te pihi ki runga i tona tuaka. E 6 putu te roa o Fortune, engari he 12 putu te roa o te papaahi, i runga i te tuanui e 40 putu mai i te tiriti ka tae ma te arawhata. Ko ona ringa e toro ana he rite te ahua o te ra, me te mea e paopao ana i te hau.
Engari ahakoa i te teitei, ka kati te tirohanga o Fortuna mai i te huarahi. Ka mau ia ki a koe i roto i tona kororia koura katoa, pera i a Papitto, kei roto i te papa kei te taha o Mario's Bohemian Cigar Shop.
He whakapakoko o te atua wahine Kariki a Fortune i tahuna ki runga i te papa o te tuanui o te whare o Phil Williams i te huihuinga i San Francisco.
I haere a Monique Dorthy o Roseville me ana tamahine tokorua mai i Greenwich ki Coit Tower i te Ratapu ki te kite i te whakapakoko o Cramer Place, he mea nui kia kore ai ia e ngoki i te manawa ki waenganui o te poraka.
“He wahine. Kare au e mohio he aha tana e pupuri ana – he momo haki,” hei tana. I tana kii he mahi toi te whakapakoko na te tangata noho, ka kii ia, “Mehemea ka harikoa ia, ka koa hoki te pa, ka pai ki ahau.”
Ko te tumanako a Wiremu ki te tuku korero hohonu atu ki a Fortuna, te atua rangatira o Roma, mai i tona tuanui.
“Ki taku whakaaro ehara i te mea pai te whao i tetahi mea ki runga i te tuanui o te whare,” ko tana korero. "Engari he tikanga. Ka korero mai a Fortune ki hea e pupuhi ana nga hau o te aitua. E faahaamana‘o te reira ia tatou i to tatou ti‘araa i roto i te ao nei ».
Ko Williams, he manene o Ingarangi e tino mohio ana mo ana mahi miihini i te repo Chrissy Field, kaore ano kia rongo mo Fortune i mua i tana kawe i tana wahine a Patricia ki te hararei ki Venice i mua i te mate uruta. I titiro to ratou ruma hotera ki a Dogana di Mare, he whare tikanga o te rautau 17, puta noa i te Grand Canal. Kei runga te tuanui o te rangi. I kii te kaiarahi ko te atua o Fortuna, i hangaia e te tohunga whakairo baroque Bernardo Falcone. Kua piri ki te whare mai i te tau 1678.
Kei te rapu a Wiremu i tetahi whakaihiihi hou i runga i te tuanui i muri i te patai o te kamera obscura i hangaia e ia ki te tuanui o te ruuma panui o te papa o runga, me te turaki.
I hikoi ia ki roto me te huri noa i Washington Square ki te whakarite kia kitea tona tuanui. Ka hoki ia ki tona kainga ka waea atu ki tana hoa, he tohunga whakairo Petaluma, 77 ona tau, a Tom Cipes.
"I mohio tonu ia ki te kaha toi o te whakahou i te whakairo Venetian o te rautau 17 me te kawe ki San Francisco," ko ta Williams.
I koha e Cipes ana mahi, e ono marama te utu. E ai ki a Williams he $5,000 te utu. I kitea he turanga muka kaata i te Mannequin Madness i Tamaki Makaurau. Ko te wero a Cipes ko te whakaki i a ia ki te anga maitai me te sima e kaha ana ki te mau tonu i tona whenua, engari he maamaa ki te kopikopiko i te wa e pupuhi ana te hau ki ona makawe ataahua. Ko te pa whakamutunga ko te patina ki runga i tana koura, he ahua kee o te rangi i te kohu me te ua.
He whakapakoko o te atua o Roma a Fortune e tu ana i runga i te tuanui o te whare o Phil Williams i runga Telegraph Hill i San Francisco.
I hanga e Wiremu he anga ki runga ake i te kohao i tu ai te kamera obscura, he waahi mo te turanga o Fortune. I whakauruhia e ia nga rama papa hei whakamarama i te whakapakoko mai i te 8 ki te 9 i te ahiahi, he roa te roa ki te taapiri i te ahua o te po ki te papa, engari kaore i te roa ki te whakararuraru i nga hoa noho tata.
I te 18 o Pepuere, i te po marama o Hui-tanguru, karekau he marama, i roto i te korakora o nga rama o te taone, i tu te whakatuwheratanga kati mo nga hoa. Ka piki takitahi ki runga i te arawhata ki te tuanui, ka whakatangihia e Wiremu tetahi rekoata mo Carmina Burana, he oratorio i tuhia mo Fortuna i te rau tau 1900. I parai ratou ki te prosecco. I panui te kaiako Itariana i te rotarota "O Fortune" me te whakapiri i nga kupu ki te turanga o te whakapakoko.
"E toru nga ra i muri mai, ka whakatuu matou i a ia ka hanga he awhiowhio," ta Williams. "Kare au e pirangi ki te tino whakamataku, engari he rite ki tana karanga i te ira hau."
Ko te ata o te Rātapu te makariri me te hau, a kei te kanikani a Fortune, e kaha ana ki te whakanoho i te karauna ki runga i tona mahunga me te hiki i nga ra.
"Ki taku whakaaro he pai," i kii tetahi tangata i kii ko Gregory te ingoa, i peia mai i tona kainga i Pacific Heights mo te hikoi haere ma Washington Square. "E aroha ana ahau ki te hipster San Francisco."
He kaikawe korero a Sam Whiting mo te San Francisco Chronicle mai i te tau 1988. I timata ia hei kaituhi kaimahi mo te rarangi "Tangata" a Herb Kahn, a, kua tuhia e ia mo nga tangata mai i tera wa. He kairipoata kaupapa whanui ia e tohunga ana ki te tuhi i nga korero mate roa. Kei San Francisco ia e noho ana, e toru maero ia ra e hikoi ana i nga huarahi tiriti o te taone nui.
