EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the magnificent rear view of the Church of S. Marco in Milan, showcasing its Romanesque architecture dating back to the Middle Ages. Taken in 1956 by renowned photographers Alinari, Fratelli, this image transports us back to a time when Europe was flourishing with architectural marvels. The church's portal and building elements are beautifully depicted, revealing intricate decorations and sections that speak volumes about the craftsmanship of that era. The lantern atop the roof adds an enchanting touch to this already mesmerizing sight. The spire and drum rise majestically towards the sky while the bell tower stands tall as a symbol of faith and devotion. As we gaze at this photograph, our eyes are drawn beyond the church's structure towards a bustling street scene. Houses line up along the streets, providing shelter for those who call Milan their home. In contrast to these man-made structures, nature asserts itself with lush vegetation surrounding a towering tree nearby. The composition exudes a sense of tranquility amidst urban life; it offers us not only a glimpse into history but also an opportunity to appreciate both human ingenuity and nature's resilience. This image is not just about capturing architectural details or city views; it encapsulates centuries worth of stories within its frame. Alinari has masterfully captured this moment frozen in time – an ode to Milan's rich heritage spanning over two millennia. As we admire this remarkable artwork from XIII century Italy through Alinari's lens from more than half a century ago, we can't help but feel grateful for being able to witness such beauty preserved on paper.
