EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "FVQ-F-150271-0000" transports us back to the enchanting city of Rome in the year 1865. The focal point of this image is none other than the illustrious Villa Medici, formerly known as the Academy of France. Standing proudly amidst a picturesque landscape, this architectural masterpiece exudes elegance and grandeur. The Villa Medici was brought to life by renowned artists Ammannati Bartolomeo, Nanni di Baccio Bigio, and Lippi Annibale between 1564 and 1575. Its intricate design showcases various arches, building elements, columns, windows, niches, towers - all meticulously crafted with impeccable attention to detail. Surrounded by lush hedges and nestled within a sprawling park-like setting, this villa epitomizes tranquility and sophistication. The low relief sculptures adorning its facade add an extra layer of artistic beauty to an already mesmerizing structure. Intriguingly captured in this photograph are glimpses of daily life during that era. A horse-drawn coach can be seen traversing a road adjacent to the villa – a common method of transportation at the time. This snapshot provides us with a glimpse into how people moved about in those days while showcasing Rome's timeless charm. Altobelli & Molins have expertly preserved this moment in history through their exceptional craftsmanship in printing this remarkable image from Alinari's collection.
