EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Bell-tower of the Cathedral of Assumption, standing proudly in Saint Benigno Canavese, a charming town near Turin. The Romanesque architecture of this magnificent structure takes us back to the Middle Ages, immersing us in the rich history of Europe during the first and second millennium A. D. The photograph was taken between 1915-1920 by Alinari, Fratelli, renowned for their exceptional craftsmanship in capturing timeless moments. The image showcases every intricate detail of this architectural masterpiece - from its balustrade and building elements to its exquisite decorations and sections. Atop this grand bell tower sits a striking dome or cupola that adds an air of elegance to the entire composition. Pilaster strips adorn its walls while a single light window allows just enough sunlight to filter through. In addition to being an awe-inspiring work of art, it also serves as a functional timepiece with its prominent clock face. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, we are transported back in time to an era where such structures were not only symbols of religious devotion but also integral parts of daily life. This image is a testament to human ingenuity and craftsmanship that has stood strong for centuries. Alinari's skillful capture ensures that every minute detail is preserved for generations to come. It reminds us that even amidst our rapidly changing world, there are still remnants from our past worth cherishing – reminders of our shared heritage and the beauty found within historical architecture like this Bell-tower at Saint Benigno Canavese.
