EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic façade of the Cathedral of San Pietro and the Bell Tower, located in Mantova. The image, captured around 1938 by renowned artist Nicol Baschiera, beautifully captures the architectural elements and intricate details of this religious masterpiece. The Cathedral's façade is a stunning display of Renaissance and Baroque styles, with its elaborate decoration and sections that showcase the craftsmanship of the eighteenth century. From the balustrades to the pilaster strips, every element exudes grandeur and elegance. The photo highlights various features such as doors, windows, tympanums, cusps, spires, drums - each contributing to the overall magnificence of this structure. A statue stands tall at one corner while sculptures adorn every nook and cranny. The presence of crosses signifies its significance as a Christian place of worship. Intriguingly captured are objects like machines that were likely used during construction or maintenance work on this architectural marvel. These subtle details add depth to our understanding of how such structures were built during different periods in history. Alinari Fratelli's expert photography allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the historical importance embodied within these walls. It transports us back in time to an era when Europe was flourishing with artistic expression. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph print from Alinari Fratelli's collection dating back to 1756-1761, we can't help but be captivated by its timeless charm. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and devotion throughout centuries past - a true treasure for art enthusiasts and history buffs alike.
