EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur and architectural marvels of the Castello di Bagnaia, a medieval fortress nestled in the picturesque town of Frascati, Italy. Standing proudly at the forefront are two magnificent towers - a cylindrical tower on one side and a square tower on the other, both flanking the front entrance. Dating back to the 13th century, these towers bear witness to centuries of history that have unfolded within their walls. They epitomize Europe's rich heritage from the first and second millennium A. D. , serving as enduring symbols of strength and power. The photograph itself was captured around 1928 by Anderson, an artist with an eye for capturing timeless beauty. Through his lens, we are transported back in time to admire not only these architectural wonders but also various elements that adorn them. From intricate decorations and sections to crenelations that once provided defense against invaders, every detail tells a story. The castle's housing structure stands tall amidst lush vegetation and towering trees - remnants of another era when nature coexisted harmoniously with human creations. Notably featured is a striking fountain showcasing hydraulic craftsmanship alongside sculptures depicting watchful figures or perhaps even personifications of time itself. These instruments remind us how crucial accurate time measurement was during this period. Alinari has masterfully preserved this historical gem through their artistry in printing this image. As we gaze upon it today, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also its ability to transport us into an enchanting world where castles were fortresses guarding precious memories from centuries past.
