EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "FVQ-F-091356-0000 Archimede's tomb, Syracuse" takes us back in time to the year 1865. The image transports us to the ancient city of Syracuse, where history and archaeology intertwine seamlessly. The focal point of this photograph is none other than Archimedes' tomb, a site of immense historical significance. As we gaze upon this monument, we cannot help but feel a sense of awe and reverence for the brilliant mathematician it commemorates. Archimedes was not only a renowned figure in mathematics but also made significant contributions to various fields within the natural sciences. The composition captures both the grandeur and serenity surrounding Archimedes' final resting place. It invites us to contemplate his legacy and ponder the impact he had on our understanding of mathematics and science as a whole. Furthermore, this print by Giorgio Sommer from Alinari serves as an invaluable resource for archaeological enthusiasts or those with an interest in thematic searches related to tombs, excavations, monuments, and complexes. It offers a glimpse into the world of archeology during what was known as "the grand tour" period when travelers embarked on educational journeys through Europe. It is important to note that while this caption highlights the historical value of Sommer's work capturing Archimedes' tomb in Syracuse in 1865, it does not mention any commercial use or affiliation with any specific company. Instead, its focus lies solely on appreciating the artistic merit and cultural significance embedded within this remarkable photograph print from Alinari's collection
