EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Church of S. Lorenzo Maggiore in Milan, Italy. The image captures the grandeur of this historic religious structure, highlighting its impressive architecture and rich history. On the first floor of the church, two striking Roman columns steal the spotlight. These ancient pillars are believed to have been brought from an unidentified building during the fourth century, possibly a pagan temple from imperial times. Their presence adds a sense of mystery and intrigue to this already awe-inspiring place. The photograph also offers a glimpse into Milan's past with its depiction of 19th-century arts and handicrafts adorning the facade. It is evident that great care was taken in preserving and enhancing this architectural masterpiece throughout different centuries. The composition beautifully frames various elements of the church, including its dome, cupola, bell tower, vestibule, and entranceway. Each detail contributes to creating an atmosphere that exudes both Christian spirituality and historical significance. As we observe this street scene captured by Alinari Fratelli in 1955 but featuring artwork dating back to 1894 by Cesare Nava (1861-1933), we can't help but be transported back in time. The absence of any action or people allows us to fully appreciate every aspect of this remarkable view without distraction. In conclusion, Alinari's print immortalizes not only a stunning architectural gem but also pays homage to Milan's cultural heritage spanning several centuries. This image serves as a testament to human creativity and devotion while inviting viewers on a visual journey through time.
