EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the magnificent Church of Santa Maria Formosa in Venice, showcasing its stunning facade that seamlessly blends High Renaissance, Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods. With a history dating back to 639 AD, this architectural masterpiece stands as a testament to the rich heritage of Europe. The image transports us to the early 20th century, between 1920-1930, when it was captured by Alinari Fratelli. The church's dome and cupola rise majestically against the Venetian skyline, drawing our gaze towards its intricate building elements and decorative sections. Every detail exudes an aura of grandeur and religious significance. The bell tower proudly reaches for the heavens while adding verticality to the composition. As we explore further into the frame, we are immersed in a bustling urban scene surrounding this sacred structure. The square or piazza adjacent to the church comes alive with action – people going about their daily lives amidst this timeless backdrop. From this vantage point, we gain not only a view of the city but also insight into its historical layers spanning centuries. The Church of Santa Maria Formosa has witnessed countless events throughout time: from medieval times through various renaissances until modernity. We owe gratitude to Mauro Codussi or Coducci (1440-1504), whose artistic vision brought forth this remarkable edifice that continues to inspire awe even today. This photograph serves as both a window into history and an invitation for contemplation within these hallowed walls. Let us cherish this visual treasure from Alinari's collection – an enduring reminder of Venice's architectural splendor and spiritual devotion across millennia.
