EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "FVQ-F-154575-0000" takes us back in time to the enchanting city of Rome during the early 20th century. The image captures a postcard-worthy view of Piazza dell'Esedra, now known as Piazza della Repubblica, adorned with the mesmerizing Fountain of the Naiads. The photograph was taken between 1930 and 1933 by Fotocelere, a renowned photography company that beautifully encapsulated moments in history through their lens. However, it is Mario Rutelli's artistic vision that truly shines through this masterpiece. Rutelli, an esteemed artist from 1859 to 1941, created this stunning artwork sometime between 1888 and 1901. His attention to detail and deep appreciation for Greco-Roman mythology are evident in every brushstroke. The nymphs depicted in the fountain exude grace and elegance while paying homage to ancient minor divinities. Located in Rome's bustling Piazza della Repubblica, this iconic landmark has stood as a testament to Italy's rich cultural heritage for centuries. Its grandeur is enhanced by its surroundings - historic buildings and vibrant streets filled with life. As we gaze upon this timeless image captured by Alinari - a name synonymous with excellence in photography - we are transported back to an era where horse-drawn carriages traversed cobblestone streets and locals gathered around fountains like these for respite from the summer heat. This print serves as both a window into history and an invitation to explore Rome's architectural wonders firsthand. It reminds us of our connection to past civilizations while igniting our curiosity about what lies beyond each corner of this eternal city.
