EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the exquisite beauty of a nymph from the Fountain of Neptune, located in Piazza della Signoria, Florence. Created by renowned artists Bartolomeo Ammannati and Giambologna during the Mannerism period of the Renaissance-Baroque styles, this monumental fountain stands as a testament to their artistic genius. The photograph was taken around 1920-1930, showcasing the timeless allure of this masterpiece that dates back to 1563-1575. The artist behind this enchanting sculpture is Ammannati Bartolomeo (1511-1592), also known as Giambologna or Jean de Boulogne. Intricately detailed, the nymph's graceful pose and flowing hairdo are captured with precision. Her nude form symbolizes both her divine nature as a minor divinity in Greco-Roman mythology and her connection to nature itself. As one gazes upon her delicate features and gentle curves, it becomes evident why she has captivated countless visitors throughout Europe for centuries. The composition highlights not only the nymph but also showcases other elements of this grand fountain - including dolphins representing cetaceans and mammals - which further enhance its majestic presence within Piazza della Signoria. Alinari Fratelli masterfully preserves this historical artwork through their expert photography skills. Their careful attention to detail allows viewers to appreciate every nuance of this remarkable piece from different angles. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply drawn to beauty in all its forms, this print offers a glimpse into history while celebrating human creativity at its finest.
