EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Siena's Duomo, a magnificent Gothic church that stands as a testament to Europe's rich history. The image transports us back to the Middle Ages, when this architectural masterpiece was first constructed between 1196 and 1382. The Duomo is adorned with intricate details and exquisite craftsmanship, showcasing the talents of renowned artists such as Giovanni di Cecco, Giovanni Pisano (1248 c. -1315), and Nicola Pisano. Their work can be seen in every corner of this awe-inspiring structure - from its elaborate facade to its meticulously designed building elements and decorations. As we gaze at the photograph, our eyes are drawn towards the towering bell tower that proudly reaches towards the heavens. It serves as a reminder of Siena's deep religious roots and its significance within Christian history. Surrounded by an urban square or piazza, this breathtaking view offers us a glimpse into Siena's vibrant cityscape. From this aerial perspective, we can appreciate both the grandeur of the Duomo itself and how it harmoniously blends into its surroundings. In addition to capturing architectural magnificence, this photo also allows us to witness nature's beauty in action. A birds-eye view reveals flocks of birds gracefully soaring above Siena’s rooftops – their presence adding an ethereal touch to an already enchanting scene. Quilici Folco skillfully captured all these elements in his photograph taken in 1971. Through his lens, he immortalized not just a physical structure but also centuries worth of cultural heritage contained within those walls. This stunning print is more than just a piece of art; it is an invitation for viewers like us to embark on a visual journey through time – exploring gothic architecture during Europe’s first and second millenniums while marveling at one city’s enduring legacy.
