EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bygone era in Rome, showcasing "The House of Giulio Romano and the old pharmacy 'Cesanelli' in via Giulio Romano near the Capitol". The image transports us back to a time when this area was bustling with life and architectural marvels. In this snapshot from 1880-1885, we witness the grandeur of an urban landscape that has long since disappeared. The composition highlights both the house and the pharmacy, which were integral parts of daily life for Romans at that time. The architecture is stunning, reflecting a blend of classical influences and unique Roman design elements. The photograph also reveals glimpses into everyday commerce as it showcases a business sign hanging above the entrance to Cesanelli's old pharmacy. This detail adds depth to our understanding of how these structures served not only as homes but also as commercial spaces. As we take in this scene, we can't help but feel a sense of nostalgia for what once was. It serves as a reminder that cities are constantly evolving, with new buildings replacing those that came before them. Unfortunately, progress often comes at the cost of losing historical treasures like these. Roesler Franz Ettore's skillful capture allows us to appreciate not only the architecture but also details such as furnishings for civic spaces and sculptures adorning nearby shrines or tabernacles. These intricate touches add character to an already enchanting streetscape. While it is disheartening to know that this entire area was demolished later in history during the late nineteenth century, photographs like these become invaluable records preserving our collective memory. They remind us to cherish our architectural heritage and inspire us to protect what remains for future generations to admire and learn from.
