EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures an elevated view of the magnificent Cathedral of S. Martino in Lucca. The grandeur of this Romanesque church, dating back to the First and Second Millennium A. D. , is truly awe-inspiring. The facade of the cathedral is a masterpiece in itself, featuring a lower portico and three levels of galleries on top. Each level showcases intricate architectural details that speak volumes about the craftsmanship during the Middle Ages in Europe. On the right side stands a tall bell tower, its open window adorned with two, three, and four lights. This tower adds verticality to the composition while maintaining harmony with the rest of the structure. As we observe this aerial view from above, we are granted a unique perspective on Lucca's urban landscape. The cathedral dominates its surroundings, becoming a focal point for both locals and visitors alike. The photograph was taken around 1890 by Alinari Fratelli, capturing not only an exquisite moment frozen in time but also documenting an artwork that dates back to 1060 during XIII century. This image allows us to appreciate not only the architectural elements but also provides insight into religious life during those times. It serves as a reminder of how faith played such an integral role in shaping communities throughout history. With its rich history and stunning beauty captured through Alinari's lens, this print becomes more than just an artistic representation; it becomes a portal into another era—a testament to human ingenuity and devotion standing strong against time's relentless march forward.
