EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent facade of Turin's Central Station, also known as Porta Nuova. The work of Alessandro Mazzucchetti, Carlo Ceppi, and Carlo Alberto Castigliano, this architectural masterpiece is a testament to the eclecticism that defined 19th-century Europe. The photograph was taken around 1890, capturing the essence of this remarkable structure that was completed between 1865 and 1868. Created by talented artists Mazzucchetti, Ceppi, and Castigliano, every detail of the facade reflects their expertise in applied arts and crafts. The intricately designed balustrade made from marble adds an air of elegance to the station's entrance. The arches and columns stand tall with grandeur while pilasters enhance the overall aesthetic appeal. Stained glass windows bring vibrant colors into play against a backdrop of urban life in Turin. Surrounded by a bustling square or piazza adorned with lush vegetation and towering trees, this railway station stands as a symbol of progress during its time. Its foundation firmly rooted in history connects it to both the first and second millennium A. D. , bridging past eras with modernity. Brogi's skillful photography captures not only the physical beauty but also evokes a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone. This artwork serves as a reminder that architecture can transcend time itself. As we gaze upon this print from Alinari without any commercial intent mentioned here, we are transported back to Turin in its heyday—a city where artistry met functionality on such an impressive scale.
