EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent façade of Our Lady of the Consolation, also known as the Sanctuary of Our Lady of the Consolation. Designed by Guarino Guarini, this architectural masterpiece is located in Turin, Italy. The church exhibits a stunning blend of Baroque and Renaissance-Baroque styles, representing Europe's rich artistic heritage from both periods. The photograph was taken around 1890, capturing the timeless beauty and grandeur of this historical landmark that dates back to 1678. The artist responsible for this remarkable creation is either Juvarra o Juvara or Filippo; however, it is undoubtedly influenced by Guarino Guarini's vision. Every intricate detail comes to life in this image – from the street lamp illuminating its surroundings to the carefully crafted furnishings for civic spaces. The architrave and other building elements are adorned with exquisite decorations and sections that epitomize architectural excellence. As you gaze at this photograph, your eyes will be drawn to various elements such as columns, pilaster strips, windows, roofs, tympanums, foundations, pronaos (porch), and housing structures. Each feature contributes to creating a harmonious composition that exemplifies Baroque aesthetics. The single light window captures natural light perfectly while showcasing its Renaissance influences. This fusion between different styles across centuries demonstrates how European architecture has evolved throughout history. Brogi skillfully captured all these details in his photography work for Alinari without mentioning any commercial use intentions. Through his lens and expertise behind the camera lens shines a visual narrative that allows viewers like yourself to appreciate not only Turin's cultural heritage but also Europe's architectural legacy spanning over two millennia.
