EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Church of S. Maria Novella and the bustling piazza that shares its name in Florence. The image captures the essence of this historic city, with its rich architectural heritage and vibrant urban atmosphere. The Church of S. Maria Novella stands proudly in the foreground, displaying a stunning facade that reflects various styles and periods from Early Renaissance to Renaissance-Baroque. Its intricate details and grandeur are a testament to the artistic brilliance of renowned artists such as Sisto, fra', Giovanni da Campi, fra', Ristoro, fra', Talenti Jacopo, and Alberti Leon Battista. Surrounding the church is Piazza S. Maria Novella, a lively square teeming with activity. The scene depicts people going about their daily lives - walking along the streets or commuting on streetcars that run on tracks through this vibrant part of town.
