EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent arch of the Loggia del Bigallo in Florence, Italy. Standing proudly in the heart of Piazza Duomo, this Gothic masterpiece takes us back to the Middle Ages, reminding us of Europe's rich history. The photograph was taken between 1920 and 1930, capturing the timeless beauty of this architectural gem. However, it is important to note that the actual artwork dates back even further, from 1352 to 1358. The talented artists behind this creation were Arnoldi Alberto and Ambrogio di Renzo. Constructed with wrought metal, this object belongs to the realm of applied arts and crafts. The intricate details on its surface showcase a remarkable level of craftsmanship. As an arch and building element, it adds both structural integrity and aesthetic appeal to its surroundings. The loggia itself serves as an arcade or covered walkway—a place where people can gather or seek shelter while admiring their surroundings. Its architecture exemplifies the Gothic style prevalent during that time period. The low relief sculptures adorning this gate fence transport us back in time—each carving telling a story from centuries ago. This fusion of artistry and functionality perfectly encapsulates European culture during the first and second millenniums A. D. This particular print was captured by Alinari Fratelli—an esteemed name associated with preserving historical moments through photography. Through their lens, they have immortalized not only a physical structure but also a piece of history for future generations to appreciate.
