EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the enchanting Piazza della Signoria in Florence. The image, captured around 1890, showcases the remarkable architecture of this historic square, which dates back to the Middle Ages. At the heart of the composition stands a magnificent Gothic building that dominates the scene. This architectural masterpiece was crafted by Arnolfo di Cambio between 1299 and 1315, showcasing his exceptional talent and skill. Its intricate details are highlighted by the street lamp adorning its entrance, casting a soft glow on its surroundings. The piazza itself is bustling with life as people go about their daily activities. A majestic horse gracefully traverses through this urban space while pedestrians admire their surroundings. The presence of these terrestrial mammals adds an element of liveliness to an otherwise static moment frozen in time. As our eyes wander upwards from ground level, we notice various architectural elements that adorn this grand structure – arches, windows, loggias, towers – each contributing to its overall charm and character. Crenelations atop the building add a touch of medieval flair. To further enhance this historical ambiance, shops and stores line one side of the square offering glimpses into commercial life during that era. Coaches can be seen parked nearby suggesting a mode of transportation commonly used at that time. Brogi's expert photography captures not only a view but also tells a story about life in Florence during this period. It invites us to immerse ourselves in history and appreciate both the beauty and functionality of architecture from centuries past.
