EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur of "The great cloister of the Certosa of Pavia". Taken around 1890, it offers a glimpse into the architectural marvel that is steeped in history. The Certosa di Pavia Cloister, located in Europe, stands as a testament to both Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods. As one's eyes wander across the image, they are immediately drawn to the intricate arches and building elements that adorn this magnificent structure. Each column exudes elegance and strength, reflecting the mastery of craftsmanship from centuries past. The open gallery invites visitors to take a leisurely stroll through its hallowed halls, offering respite from worldly distractions. Originally built as a Carthusian monastery, this Christian religious sanctuary holds deep spiritual significance. It has provided solace for countless clergy members throughout its existence. In this photograph, we catch a glimpse of an anonymous person walking amidst these sacred surroundings – perhaps a monk seeking tranquility or engaged in contemplation. The timeless beauty captured by Brogi's lens transports us back to the Renaissance era when Europe flourished with artistic brilliance. This print serves as a window into history; it allows us to appreciate not only the physical structure but also its cultural importance during both first and second millennium A. D.
