EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "CAD-S-080010-0013" takes us back in time to an animated scene set between Corneto Tarquinia and Viterbo. The year is 1926, and the lens of Aurelio Monteverde has captured a mesmerizing view of an aqueduct that stands as a testament to ancient engineering marvels. The aqueduct dominates the frame, its grandeur accentuated by the surrounding landscape. This remarkable structure serves as a bridge between past and present, connecting us with the rich history of this region. It whispers tales of civilizations long gone, their ingenuity immortalized in stone. As we delve deeper into this image, our eyes wander towards the distant horizon where sites of excavations emerge from the earth's embrace. Monuments and complexes rise proudly against the sky, bearing witness to centuries of human existence. Each brick tells a story; each column holds secrets waiting to be unraveled by archeologists who tirelessly seek answers about our collective past. The hydraulic system depicted here showcases not only functional brilliance but also artistic finesse. Its architectural prowess leaves us in awe as we ponder how such intricate structures were crafted without modern technology. Monteverde's skillful composition allows us to appreciate both the scale and intricacy of this aqueduct while capturing its harmonious integration within nature's embrace. The play between light and shadow adds depth to every archway and pillar, casting an ethereal glow upon these ancient stones. In preserving moments like these through his lens, Monteverde invites us on a journey through time – reminding us that even amidst progress and change, there will always be remnants left behind for future generations to admire and learn from.
