EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the enchanting Piazza San Domenico in Pinerolo, Italy. The focal point of this picturesque scene is undoubtedly the magnificent church of San Maurizio, majestically perched atop a hill. Its imposing presence dominates the landscape, drawing our gaze towards its grandeur. As we admire the church's architectural marvels, our eyes are also drawn to the adjacent sanctuary of the Madonna delle Grazie. This sacred space stands proudly next to the church apse, offering solace and spiritual refuge to all who seek it. The photograph itself was taken in 1932, capturing a moment frozen in time from almost a century ago. However, it is important to note that this artwork has much deeper historical roots. The church dates back centuries; its origins can be traced as far back as 1078 with subsequent additions made in 1470 and 1897. The Late Gothic style prevalent throughout this structure evokes an aura of mystery and reverence. From its intricate building elements and decorative sections to its awe-inspiring dome, cupola, and bell tower – every detail showcases masterful craftsmanship that has stood the test of time. Beyond being an architectural masterpiece, this place holds immense religious significance for those who gather here for worship or quiet contemplation. It serves as a reminder of Europe's rich Christian heritage spanning across multiple millennia. With rolling hillsides forming a stunning backdrop against which this urban square unfolds before us, there is an undeniable sense of tranquility emanating from this image. Time seems suspended within these walls adorned with two light windows and three light windows – each frame telling stories etched into history's tapestry. Captured by Anderson from Alinari without any commercial intent behind it - let us cherish this remarkable piece that encapsulates both artistry and spirituality intertwined harmoniously within one frame
