EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the heart of Rome, showcasing the magnificent facade of the basilica of Saint Maria in Trastevere. The image captures the essence of both ancient and more recent history, as it showcases a mosaic from the thirteenth century alongside a porch designed by Carlo Fontana in 1702. The Romanesque architecture is truly awe-inspiring, with its intricate details and grandeur. The photograph allows us to appreciate every element that makes up this remarkable structure - from the balustrades and building elements to the beautifully adorned windows and tympanum. The mosaic ornamentation adds an extra layer of beauty, depicting religious scenes that have stood the test of time. Standing tall amidst all these architectural wonders is a bell tower, proudly displaying its Christian heritage. A statue can also be seen within this bustling street scene, adding a touch of life to an otherwise static view. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to Rome's medieval era - a period filled with rich history and cultural significance. It serves as a reminder of Europe's first millennium AD when such structures were built with meticulous craftsmanship. The inclusion of a street lamp reminds us that this isn't just an isolated piece; it represents part of Rome's urban landscape. This fusion between historical architecture and modern furnishings for civic spaces highlights how Rome has evolved throughout centuries while still preserving its timeless charm. Captured around 1890 by Anderson from Alinari, this print encapsulates not only artistic beauty but also historical importance. It invites viewers to immerse themselves in Rome's past while appreciating its enduring legacy for generations to come.
