EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the awe-inspiring Santa Maria Maggiore Cathedral in Como, Italy. The apsidal view of this magnificent Gothic church transports us to the heart of Europe during the Middle Ages. The image showcases the grandeur and architectural brilliance of this historic cathedral. Built between 1396 and 1774, it stands as a testament to the craftsmanship of renowned artists such as Juvarra o Juvara, Filippo Rodari, Tommaso degli Spazzi, Lorenzo da Breggia, Pietro da Bont, Fiorino Rodari, and Giovanni. Every detail is meticulously captured by Brogi's lens from over a century ago. From the exedra to the tribune and other building elements that make up its structure; every aspect tells a story of devotion and religious significance. The dome with its intricate cupola rises majestically above the surrounding landscape. The pilaster strips add depth and elegance while drawing our eyes towards the lantern at its peak. Three light windows illuminate this sacred space with ethereal radiance. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported through time - witnessing centuries of history unfold before our eyes. It serves as a reminder of how architecture can transcend generations while remaining steadfast in its purpose: providing solace for those seeking spiritual connection. Let yourself be captivated by this remarkable artwork that encapsulates both beauty and faith within its frame. A true masterpiece that continues to inspire admiration for European artistry from both past eras and present times alike.
