EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of the Fountain of Acqua Paola in Rome, a masterpiece built by wish of Pope Paul V. The collaboration between two talented architects, Giovanni Vasanzio and Giovanni Fontana, resulted in this monumental fountain that stands proudly in Piazza Trilussa. Dating back to 1613, this architectural marvel showcases a harmonious blend of Late Renaissance, Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods. Its intricate design reflects the artistic brilliance prevalent during that era in Europe. As you gaze at this photograph taken around 1890, you can't help but be transported back in time to witness the magnificence of this structure firsthand. The Fountain of Acqua Paola is not just an ordinary piece of architecture; it represents a fusion between artistry and functionality. With its hydraulic system, it served as a vital water source for the people of Rome throughout history. This dual purpose makes it all the more remarkable. The artist behind this awe-inspiring creation is none other than Giovanni Fontana, also known as Giovanni Fiammingo. His attention to detail and mastery over his craft are evident through every inch of this fountain's design. As you admire this print from Alinari's collection, take a moment to appreciate how it encapsulates centuries worth of history within its frame. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and creativity across different periods - from the First Millennium A. D. , when construction began on the fountain until today. Let your imagination wander as you envision yourself standing before this magnificent work of art – feeling its presence amidst bustling crowds while being captivated by its timeless beauty.
