Prime Minister Edi Rama today gave a long interview to the Greek newspaper "Kathimerini" that was broadcast this Sunday and was broadcast (as usual) on his Facebook page and in all Albanian media.
But for the first time, Rama revealed a detail from his office at the prime minister's office.
What photo does the head of the Albanian government have on his computer desk?
At the last moment of the interview, when he was closing the zoom connection with the Greek journalist, Rama showed (with or without) the image of his computer for the first time.
The one you see in the picture above is Pope John Paul II. But it is not about any moment of his downfall. It is a work of art made by the famous Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan called "Ninth Hour" or as it is known in simple language "The Pope is hit by a meteor" in 1999.
"The Ninth Hour" presents Pope John Paul II lying on the ground after the blow and with an expression on his face similar to that of Christ's call on the cross: "Why have you forsaken me?". It caused quite a controversy after it was exhibited at the Royal Academy in London and then in Warsaw. It was sold to Christie's auction house in 2001 for $886,000.

The work has been interpreted in different ways. Some read it as a comment on the Catholic Church's reputation for covering scandals beneath its moral surface. Others have seen it as a suggestion that even the highest positions of power may be vulnerable. Cattelan seems to suggest that even the holiest man in the Roman Catholic tradition may not be safe from calamity.

Initially, the work was presented standing, but then Cattelan, dissatisfied, came up with the idea of the meteorite, saying: "I realized that I had knocked down the figure of my father". Are these the messages that Rama conveys to himself every time he opens the office computer?/ LAPSI.al
