EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "PDC-F-002797-0000" transports us to the enchanting cemetery of Staglieno in Genoa. The focal point of the image is the magnificent Piaggio monument, a masterpiece sculpted by Fabiani. Standing tall amidst the serene surroundings, this sculpture showcases a group of deceased individuals accompanied by an angel. The attention to detail in this artwork is truly remarkable. Every figure seems to come alive with emotion and grace. The angel, with her outstretched wings and delicate features, exudes a sense of tranquility and protection. Clutching a bible from the New Testament in one hand and holding a trumpet-like instrument or document in another, she symbolizes hope and salvation for those who have passed on. Dating back to 1876, this timeless creation has stood as a testament to human creativity for over a century. Its presence within the Monumental Cemetery adds an air of solemnity and reverence to its already awe-inspiring beauty. The photographer behind this stunning capture is Alfred Noack from Alinari. Through his lens, he manages to encapsulate not only the physical grandeur of the Piaggio monument but also its spiritual significance. As we gaze upon this photograph print from 1890-1900 approximately, we are transported into another world - one where art merges seamlessly with life and death; where music resonates through every stone; where female portraits become vessels for eternal remembrance. Let us cherish these moments frozen in time as we appreciate both Noack's skillful eye behind the camera lens and Fabiani's masterful craftsmanship that continues to captivate our hearts even today.
