EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "MFC-F-001654-0000" transports us back in time to the late 19th century. It beautifully captures the grandeur of the romanesque-gothic Cathedral of Carrara, standing proudly against a contiguous plain. The focal point of this architectural marvel is undoubtedly the fountain adorned with a statue by Andrea Doria. The photographer, Alfred Noack, skillfully frames this scene to include an unexpected element: an open umbrella hanging on the railing. This whimsical addition adds intrigue and invites us to ponder its purpose or significance within this religious setting. Dating back centuries, from the 11th to 14th century, this cathedral has witnessed countless moments of devotion and worship. Its intricate building elements and decorative details showcase the mastery of Romanesque and Gothic architecture. Beyond its religious importance, this photograph also offers a glimpse into daily life during that era. A bustling street scene unfolds before our eyes as people go about their business in view of the majestic cathedral. The cityscape serves as a backdrop for both spiritual contemplation and mundane activities. Noack's keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate not only the structure itself but also its hydraulic features such as the fountain that brings life and movement to this sacred space. As we admire this historical gem captured through Noack's lens, let us reflect on how art can transport us across time and immerse ourselves in different cultures while appreciating their rich heritage.
