EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the splendid altar of St. Paul's - outside the walls in Rome, circa 1909. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to its already awe-inspiring subject matter. The altar is situated over the tomb of St. Paul within the magnificent Saint Paul Outside the Walls basilica, which was originally founded by Roman Emperor Constantine I. The photograph invites viewers to explore every intricate detail of this architectural masterpiece and religious symbol. The grandeur and decorative elements are captured beautifully in black and white cinematography, emphasizing both the solemnity and majesty of this sacred space. As one gazes upon this vintage print through a Sun Sculpture stereoscope made by Underwood & Underwood, they are transported back in time to witness a piece of history frozen in stillness. This UNESCO World Heritage site holds immense significance for Catholicism as it serves as a burial site for St. Paul himself. The juxtaposition between ancient traditions and modern technology is evident with the use of stereoscope viewing, allowing individuals to immerse themselves fully into this historic scene from early 20th century Italy. This print not only captures an extraordinary moment within Roman Catholicism but also serves as a testament to human creativity and devotion throughout centuries past.
