EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the southern side of the magnificent Notre Dame Cathedral in Strasbourg, France. The image takes us back to a bygone era, capturing the essence of Gothic architecture and the rich history that lies within its walls. Dating back to 1176, with subsequent additions made between 1240-1275,1284-1300, and 1300-1778, this architectural masterpiece stands as a testament to human ingenuity and craftsmanship over centuries. Its intricate building elements and decorative sections are meticulously captured in this photograph. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the mesmerizing rose window that adorns one side of the cathedral. Its delicate tracery patterns create an ethereal play of light inside, evoking a sense of awe-inspiring beauty. Rising high above is a tower adorned with cusps and spires that reach towards the heavens. The drum-like structure adds depth and grandeur to its overall appearance while buttresses provide stability for this towering religious structure. Amidst all this architectural splendor lies nature's touch - vegetation gracefully intertwines with stone as if reclaiming its place amidst human creation. A solitary tree stands tall nearby, providing shade and adding an element of tranquility against this backdrop of medieval magnificence. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph taken around 1880 by an unidentified author from Alinari, we are transported through time into Europe's first millennium. It serves as a reminder not only of our shared cultural heritage but also ignites our curiosity about those who came before us - their beliefs, aspirations, and devotion to creating something timeless. This print encapsulates not just a moment frozen in time but also invites us on an immersive journey into history itself – where artistry meets spirituality in perfect harmony at Notre Dame Cathedral in Strasbourg.
