EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the exquisite beauty of the Piazza dei Miracoli, specifically focusing on the intricate details of the baptistry. The Pisa Baptistery, a remarkable example of Gothic architecture from the Middle Ages in Europe, stands proudly as a testament to human ingenuity and artistic brilliance. Dating back to 1152, this awe-inspiring artwork was crafted by two renowned artists: Diotisalvi and Giovanni Pisano. Their combined expertise is evident in every element of this structure, from its dome and cupola to its decorative sections. Serving as both a funerary site and a Christian place of worship, the baptistry holds immense religious significance. Adjacent to it stands the iconic bell tower and church that complete this urban square known as Piazza dei Miracoli. The landscape surrounding these architectural marvels showcases rolling hillsides juxtaposed with an urban setting – a breathtaking sight that evokes feelings of wonder and serenity. The photograph itself was taken in 1971 by Quilici Folco under Alinari's lens. With an aerial view resembling that of birds-eye perspective, it offers viewers a unique vantage point to appreciate not only the grandeur but also the meticulous craftsmanship involved in creating such masterpieces. As you gaze upon this photo print, allow yourself to be transported through time – back into an era where Gothic art flourished during Europe's first and second millenniums. Let your imagination wander amidst these ancient structures while contemplating their historical significance within our modern world.
