EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the enchanting Old Cathedral of Santa Giustina in Monselice. Standing tall and proud, the apsidal bell tower dominates the scene, showcasing its Romanesque architectural style that dates back to the Middle Ages. On the right side of the tower, two majestic pilasters command attention as they are crowned by intricately carved lions. These magnificent creatures symbolize strength and power, adding a touch of grandeur to this already impressive structure. The photograph captures not only the beauty of this historical monument but also provides a glimpse into Europe's rich past. The artwork itself was created during the 13th century, representing an era filled with artistic brilliance and cultural significance. As we explore further into this image, our eyes are drawn to various elements that make up this architectural marvel. From decorative windows to crenelations atop roofs, every detail showcases meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail. Beyond its aesthetic appeal lies a deeper meaning - a place of worship for Christians throughout history. This religious sanctuary has witnessed countless prayers uttered within its walls over centuries, making it not just an object or building but a sacred space where faith finds solace. Alinari Fratelli's expert photography skillfully captures all these elements in one frame. Through their lens, we can appreciate both the artistry behind this masterpiece and its historical importance as it stands as a testament to human ingenuity across time. This print serves as more than just an image; it is a portal through which we can travel back in time and immerse ourselves in Europe's fascinating heritage from the first millennium onwards.
