EDITORS COMMENTS
This stereoscopic image takes us back in time to the northern wing of the Camposanto di Pisa, a place adorned with exquisite frescoes, statues, and tombs. The photograph was captured on January 12th, 1860, while the artwork itself dates all the way back to 1277. Created by Giovanni di Simone, this masterpiece showcases the remarkable talent and craftsmanship of its time. As we gaze upon this print by Enrico Van Lint from Alinari, we are transported to an era characterized by Gothic architecture and religious devotion. The Camposanto serves as a cemetery and stands as a testament to Christian funerary practices during the Middle Ages in Europe. The intricate details of this structure come alive through this stereoscopic image. We can admire the arches that gracefully frame each section of the building along with columns that stand tall against time's passage. The trusses support not only physical structures but also symbolize spiritual strength within these hallowed walls. The decoration found throughout is awe-inspiring; mural paintings tell stories of faith and life while sculptures evoke emotions that transcend centuries. Each element harmoniously contributes to creating an atmosphere where reverence meets artistic expression. This photograph captures more than just architectural beauty; it encapsulates history frozen in time—a moment when artistry met mortality in perfect harmony. It invites us to reflect on our own existence while appreciating those who came before us. Enrico Van Lint's skillful lens has preserved a piece of heritage for generations to come—an invitation for exploration into Pisa's rich past and an opportunity for contemplation amidst breathtaking artistry.
