EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Palazzo Pretorio, once the podestarile and now the headquarters of the Magistrate's court in Lucca. The building stands proudly in Piazza S. Michele, emanating an aura of authority and history. The ground floor is adorned with a tall loggia, adding an elegant touch to its Renaissance-Baroque architecture. As we look up, our eyes are drawn to the large windows on top, each featuring two lights that beautifully frame a majestic clock. This architectural masterpiece seamlessly combines elements from different styles and periods - Early Renaissance, Renaissance, and Renaissance-Baroque. Captured around 1890 by Alinari Fratelli, this photograph allows us to appreciate not only the grandeur of Palazzo Pretorio but also provides a glimpse into Lucca's rich cultural heritage. The artwork itself dates back even further - created by Civitali family members Matteo Civitali, Nicolao di Matteo Civitali, and Vincenzo Civitali in 1492 and 1588. As we delve deeper into this image, we can't help but admire how every detail has been carefully preserved over time. From the intricate facade to the charming balcony overlooking the bustling street below - it all exudes an air of administrative importance. This print serves as a window into Lucca's past while simultaneously capturing its enduring beauty. It reminds us of Europe's architectural prowess throughout history as well as showcasing various artistic influences from different periods. Alinari Fratelli has truly captured a moment frozen in time - allowing us to appreciate both the artistry behind Palazzo Pretorio and its significance within Lucca's urban landscape for generations to come.
