EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the Upper terrace of Tettuccio thermal baths in Montecatini Spa, Italy. Taken around 1930, it beautifully captures the grandeur and elegance of this architectural masterpiece. The Tettuccio thermal baths, dating back to the 19th century, were a symbol of luxury and rejuvenation during Europe's revival period. This image showcases the intricate details and craftsmanship that went into its construction. The balustrade made of marble adds a touch of opulence while serving as a protective barrier for those enjoying the breathtaking views from the terrace. As we gaze upon this print by Alinari, Fratelli, our eyes are drawn towards the majestic staircase leading down to an ornate fountain. The stairs themselves are a work of art with their elaborate design and meticulous attention to detail. Each step seems to whisper stories from centuries past. The focal point is undoubtedly the stunning statue standing proudly at one end of the basin. This sculpture not only adds aesthetic beauty but also serves as a reminder that these thermal baths were not just about leisure; they held medicinal properties too. The composition expertly captures both structure and nature harmoniously coexisting – an oasis amidst bustling city life. It invites us to imagine strolling along this terrace, breathing in fresh air mixed with mineral-rich steam rising from below. Alinari's photograph allows us to appreciate Ugo Giovannozzi's architectural brilliance through his lens. It encapsulates history frozen in time – an exquisite blend of artistry and functionality that continues to captivate visitors even today.
