EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the enchanting Piazza Sordello in Mantua, Italy. The image beautifully captures the architectural wonders that grace this historic square - the Cathedral of San Pietro and the Ducal Palace. Dating back to the 13th century, this Gothic masterpiece stands tall with its intricate facade adorned with pilasters, windows, tympanums, and an elegant entablature. Each element tells a story of a bygone era, evoking a sense of awe and wonder. The grandeur of the building is further enhanced by its housing structure and bell tower which proudly overlooks the bustling square below. This religious sanctuary has witnessed centuries of devotion and continues to be a symbol of faith for many. As we gaze upon this photograph taken between 1915-1920, we are reminded of Europe's rich cultural heritage that spans over two millennia. The Gothic architecture exemplifies craftsmanship at its finest while reflecting influences from both medieval times and modernity. The sculpture statues adorning the building add an artistic touch to this urban landscape; their presence adding depth to our appreciation for this historical gem. Alinari Fratelli's skillful capture allows us to immerse ourselves in timelessness as we admire every detail within this frame. It serves as a reminder that beauty transcends time and space – it is eternal. Let us cherish these glimpses into history preserved through photography like Alinari Fratelli's work - capturing moments frozen in time so that generations after can marvel at Europe's architectural splendors.
