EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the rear view of St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican, highlighting Michelangelo's magnificent dome. The State of the Vatican City Dome, a masterpiece that combines Late Renaissance, Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods, stands as a testament to Europe's rich architectural heritage from the First and Second Millennium A. D. The photograph was taken around 1890, capturing the timeless beauty of this iconic structure. However, its origins trace back to 1546 when Fontana Domenico began constructing it. Later on, Buonarroti Michelangelo (1475-1564) and Della Porta Giacomo contributed their artistic brilliance to complete this awe-inspiring dome between 1588 and 1589. Every element in this image tells a story about the grandeur of St. Peter's Basilica: from its meticulously designed building elements to intricate decorations adorning its sections. The pilaster strips add an elegant touch while the lantern atop illuminates both the house within and surrounding areas. Staring at this remarkable sight evokes feelings of wonderment as one contemplates how such architectural marvels were created during late Renaissance times in Europe. The fusion of renaissance and baroque styles seamlessly blended together is truly breathtaking. Alinari Fratelli has masterfully captured this momentous scene through their lens – preserving history for generations to come. This print serves as a reminder not only of human ingenuity but also our ability to create enduring works that transcend time itself.
