EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent facade of the Basilica di San Bernardino in L'Aquila, Italy. The basilica stands as a testament to the rich history and architectural brilliance of Renaissance and Baroque styles. Built between 1524 and 1540, this masterpiece was crafted by Cola dell'Amatrice, also known as Nicola Filotesio. His artistic vision is evident in every intricate detail of this religious structure. The photograph, taken around 1900, captures the essence of this grandeur with precision and clarity. The viewer is transported back in time to witness the splendor that has stood for centuries. The facade itself is an awe-inspiring sight, boasting a harmonious blend of Renaissance and Baroque elements. Its elaborate decorations and sections are meticulously designed to create a sense of divine beauty. One cannot help but be drawn to the majestic staircase leading up to the entrance—a symbol of spiritual ascent for worshippers entering through its doors. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded not only of its architectural significance but also its historical importance within Europe's first and second millenniums A. D. This print serves as a window into another era—a visual representation that encapsulates both artistry and faith. It invites us to appreciate the craftsmanship behind such monumental structures while reflecting on their enduring impact on our cultural heritage. With no mention made about commercial use or any specific company associated with it, this photograph remains an anonymous work from Alinari—an enigmatic piece that continues to captivate viewers worldwide.
