EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of history and resilience in a single frame. The subject is none other than the old Conte Ugolino bridge, known as di Mezzo before it fell victim to bombing during a tumultuous time in Pisa's past. The photograph dates back to the 1930s or 1940s, offering us a glimpse into an era long gone. The image showcases not only the architectural marvel that was this ancient bridge but also highlights various elements that make up its surroundings. From the majestic bell tower standing tall against the night sky to intricate building decorations and sections, every detail tells a story of craftsmanship and artistry. As we delve deeper into this picture, we notice how seamlessly nature intertwines with man-made structures. The river flowing beneath the bridge adds an ethereal touch to the landscape while emphasizing its importance for transportation purposes both on land and water. Intriguingly, there are hints of Christian symbolism scattered throughout this composition. Perhaps it serves as a reminder of faith during times of adversity or simply pays homage to Pisa's religious heritage. Fernando Pasta's skillful lens has captured not just an architectural masterpiece but also bestowed upon us a breathtaking view of Pisa itself. With natural elements like astronomical phenomena enhancing its beauty, this photograph encapsulates both historical significance and natural splendor. Alinari presents this print as part of their collection without any commercial intentions; instead, they aim to preserve these invaluable moments frozen in time for generations to come.
