EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the serene and ancient St. Benedetto Abbey, nestled in the picturesque environs of Assisi. The image captures a breathtaking view of the internal cloister, showcasing the remarkable Romanesque architecture that has withstood the test of time. Dating back to the 10th and 17th centuries, this architectural masterpiece stands as a testament to Europe's rich history during the Middle Ages. Every arch, building element, and decorative section tells a story of its own, evoking a sense of awe and wonder. The intricate details are brought to life through Alinari's lens, revealing an exquisite blend of craftsmanship and artistry. The doorways beckon us into another world while windows offer glimpses into a bygone era. The roof stretches towards the heavens as if reaching for divine inspiration. Within this sacred space lies not only physical beauty but also spiritual significance. This cloister served as a sanctuary for Christian clergy who sought solace in their devotion. It witnessed countless prayers uttered by monks dedicated to their religious calling. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can almost feel ourselves transported back in time – surrounded by tranquility amidst these hallowed grounds. We become witnesses to centuries-old traditions carried out within these walls. Alinari's masterful composition allows us to appreciate every detail - from the hydraulic structure that once provided sustenance for those residing here to each individual stone that forms part of this extraordinary place. Let this print serve as a reminder that even in our fast-paced modern world, there are still places where time seems suspended – where one can find solace and connect with something greater than oneself.
