EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back in time to the enchanting Fontane Marose Square in Genova, Italy. The image was captured around 1890 by the talented photographer Celestino Degoix from Alinari. In this snapshot of history frozen in time, we are transported to a bustling urban scene. The square is adorned with elegant street lamps that cast a warm glow on the cobblestone streets below. The exterior of the buildings showcases intricate architectural details, with arches, columns, and decorative elements adorning their facades. Each window tells its own story as shutters open or close to reveal glimpses of life within. The rooftops create a picturesque skyline against the backdrop of an Italian sky. A coach can be seen making its way through the crowded streets, symbolizing transportation during that era – a reminder of how people moved about "by land". This lively street scene captures both the beauty and liveliness of daily life in Genova at that time. As we take in this mesmerizing view of the city, it becomes evident that Fontane Marose Square was not just any ordinary space; it was a hub for civic activities and gatherings. Furnishings specifically designed for public use can be spotted throughout – benches where people could rest or engage in conversation while enjoying their surroundings. Degoix's masterful composition allows us to immerse ourselves fully into this historical moment. With every detail meticulously preserved through his lens - from building elements like roofs and entablatures to objects such as street lamps - we are given an intimate glimpse into Genova's past. This print serves as both a visual feast for our eyes and an invitation to explore further into Genova's rich history and architectural heritage
