EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the Middle Ages, offering a partial view of the majestic Angevin Fortress. Standing proudly in the foreground is the Tower of the Lioness or of the Queen, its architectural splendor evident even through the lens of history. The Angevin Fortress, located in Lucera, Europe, dates back to the first and second millennium A. D. , making it an invaluable relic from a bygone era. This particular artwork was captured between 1920-1930 but showcases an original creation by Pierre d'Angincourt and Riccardo da Foggia during 1269-1283. As we gaze upon this photograph, our eyes are drawn to every intricate detail that adorns this fortified structure. The crenelation on top adds both beauty and functionality while building elements showcase impeccable craftsmanship. Sections of ashlar can be seen meticulously pieced together to form sturdy walls that have withstood centuries. The landscape surrounding these ruins tells tales of battles fought long ago; it whispers secrets only known by those who walked these grounds during medieval times. It's as if we can almost hear echoes from knights clashing swords or feel a cool breeze carrying stories whispered among ancient stones. Alinari has masterfully captured not just a mere image but also a piece of history frozen in time. Through their lens, they have preserved this remarkable fortress for generations to come. This print serves as a reminder that behind every crumbling stone lies a story waiting to be discovered – stories that connect us with our past and remind us how far we've come as civilizations evolve throughout time.
