EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent back portion and bell-tower of the Church of Saint Domenico, located in the enchanting town of Chieri near Turin. The church, a true testament to Gothic architecture from the Middle Ages, stands proudly as a symbol of Europe's rich cultural heritage. The image transports us back in time to the early 20th century when it was captured by Alinari, Fratelli. Through their lens, we are able to appreciate the intricate building elements and decorative sections that make this church truly remarkable. The arches gracefully curve towards the sky while the towering spire reaches for heavenly heights. As we delve deeper into this photograph, our eyes are drawn to two distinct windows - one with two light panels and another with a single light panel. These windows not only allow natural light to flood into the sacred space but also serve as artistic masterpieces themselves. It is impossible not to feel a sense of awe and reverence when gazing upon this architectural marvel. Its Christian roots are evident in every stone laid during its construction centuries ago. This religious structure has witnessed countless prayers whispered within its walls throughout history. Dating back to XIII-XIV secc. , this timeless artwork captures both historical significance and aesthetic beauty. It serves as a reminder of humanity's ability to create enduring structures that transcend time itself. Alinari's skillful photography allows us access into an era long gone yet preserved forever through their lens. As we admire this stunning image, let us reflect on our shared past and cherish these architectural treasures that continue to inspire generations today
