EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate details of the base of the Monument to the Cinque Giornate di Milano (Five Days of Milan) by Giuseppe Grandi. Located in Piazza Cinque Giornate, Milan, this monumental structure stands as a testament to an important chapter in Italian history. The photograph, taken around 1890, showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of wrought metal railings that surround the base. The viewer's eyes are immediately drawn to a bell suspended from one corner, adding a touch of elegance and musicality to the scene. A bronze female figure gracefully adorns another corner, symbolizing allegory and abstract concepts. As we explore further into this image, our attention is captured by a majestic lion sculpture resting on top of a terrestrial globe. This representation signifies strength and power while reminding us of our connection with nature. The overall composition exudes grandeur and commemoration. The obelisk column towering above serves as a reminder of past events that shaped Europe during the 19th-20th centuries. It stands proudly amidst its surroundings, blending seamlessly with other architectural structures in Piazza Cinque Giornate. Photographed by Brogi for Alinari, this print not only captures an extraordinary work of art but also preserves a moment frozen in time. It allows us to appreciate both the artistic mastery behind Grandi's creation and its historical significance within Milanese culture. Whether displayed in homes or galleries worldwide, this print invites viewers to delve into Italy's rich heritage while marveling at the skillful fusion between applied arts and crafts and monumental architecture.
