EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Florence as seen from the Church of Orsanmichele. The foreground showcases the majestic bell tower of the Badia Fiorentina, while in the background, the grandeur of the basilica of S. Croce unfolds against a picturesque landscape. Dating back to around 1890, this photograph provides a glimpse into Florence's rich history and architectural marvels that have stood for centuries. The artist behind this remarkable artwork is Arnolfo di Cambio, a renowned figure documented in 1265 and believed to have passed away in 1302. His mastery is evident in capturing not only the physical structures but also conveying their spiritual significance. The Gothic elements present throughout this image transport us back to Europe's Middle Ages, evoking a sense of awe and reverence. As we gaze upon this scene, we are reminded of how religion played an integral role in shaping society during that era.

While appreciating Alinari Fratelli's skillful preservation through photography, it is impossible not to be transported back in time by contemplating these architectural wonders. This artwork serves as a testament to human ingenuity and devotion throughout different epochs.
