EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the enchanting Basilica of St. Peter the Apostle, located in the historic town of St. Peter a Grado, Pisa. The image showcases a magnificent chariot with an ox standing proudly in front of this Romanesque masterpiece. The photograph was taken on July 27th, 1922, capturing not only the beauty of this ancient artwork but also providing us with a glimpse into life during the Middle Ages in Europe. The artwork itself dates back to the 11th century, serving as a testament to centuries of history and cultural significance. Intriguingly, this snapshot focuses on more than just the chariot and its majestic ox; it also highlights various elements that make up this architectural marvel. From its apse and exedra to its tribune and bell tower, every detail speaks volumes about Christian religious structures from that era. Beyond being visually stunning, this print offers insights into farming practices and country life during medieval times. It reminds us of how essential farm vehicles like carts and wagons were for agricultural activities. Balocchi Vincenzo's skillful composition captures both grandeur and simplicity simultaneously – emphasizing not only the artistic mastery behind such structures but also their harmonious integration within natural surroundings. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured by Alinari's lens, we are reminded of our connection to history – how these buildings have stood witness to countless generations passing through their doors over centuries past. This photograph serves as a timeless reminder that art has always been intertwined with human existence since time immemorial.
