EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the grandeur of medieval Florence as Florentine nobility don their elaborate costumes and parade through the streets during a historic procession. This photograph, captured by Alinari, Fratelli on May 15th, 1887, immortalizes the momentous occasion of the inauguration of the new façade of the Cathedral. In this mesmerizing scene, we witness a stunning display of equestrian elegance as noble men and women ride majestic horses adorned with ornate trappings. The attention to detail in their medieval attire is awe-inspiring; from intricately embroidered gowns to regal headdresses that speak volumes about their social status and wealth. The cityscape forms a breathtaking backdrop for this extraordinary spectacle. As these noble figures traverse through Florence's urban landscape, one can't help but marvel at the magnificent architecture that surrounds them. The towering structures seem to bow down in reverence to this historical event. This photograph not only captures an exquisite moment frozen in time but also offers us a glimpse into Florentine culture and fashion during that era. It serves as a testament to how clothing was used as a symbol of power and prestige among the elite. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back over a century ago when pageantry reigned supreme. We can almost hear the cheers from onlookers lining the streets and feel their excitement pulsating through history itself.
