EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and historical significance of the Civic Arena in Milan, Italy. Dating back to 1807, this large public space has been witness to classical sports reconstructions that have left spectators in awe. One notable event was a complete flooding of the arena for a Naumachia, a naval battle reenactment, during Napoleon's reign.
The image showcases the vastness of the arena, with its amphi theatre style seating and crowds of eager spectators. The atmosphere is electric as people gather to watch these spectacular recreations unfold before their eyes.
In 1840, a hot air balloon can be seen hovering above the arena, adding an extra element of excitement to the scene. The history and cultural significance of this space are palpable through this photograph, transporting viewers back in time to experience these events firsthand.
The Civic Arena stands as a testament to Milan's rich history and serves as a reminder of the grand spectacles that once took place within its walls. This print is not just a visual representation but also a window into the past, allowing us to appreciate the legacy of this iconic landmark.
