EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Partial view of Ravenna, from the rooftops" transports us back in time to the early 20th century. Taken between 1915 and 1920 by Alinari, Fratelli, this mesmerizing image showcases a unique perspective of the beautiful city of Ravenna. From this vantage point on the rooftops, we are granted an intimate glimpse into the architectural wonders that define Ravenna's skyline. The building elements and decorations are meticulously captured in intricate detail, revealing a rich tapestry of historical significance. Each section tells its own story - from ornate windows to majestic roofs and bell towers that seem to reach for the heavens. The houses nestled amidst these grand structures provide a sense of scale and human presence within this ancient cityscape. Their humble yet sturdy facades stand as testaments to generations past who called Ravenna home. It is through their eyes that we can imagine daily life unfolding against this backdrop of timeless beauty. One particular highlight is a pair of two-light windows which draw our attention with their delicate design. They serve as portals into another era, inviting us to contemplate what life might have been like during those years gone by. Alinari's masterful composition captures not only the physical aspects but also evokes an atmosphere filled with nostalgia and intrigue. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, we cannot help but be transported back in time - feeling both humbled by history's weight and inspired by its enduring legacy. This print serves as a reminder that even fragments of a larger picture can hold immense power; they offer glimpses into worlds long gone while igniting our imagination about what once was.
