EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the magnificent facade of the Church of S. Maria della Vittoria in Rome, Italy. The image showcases the grandeur and architectural brilliance of this historic church, which stands proudly on Via XX Settembre. Built in a blend of Baroque and Renaissance-Baroque styles, this iconic structure is a testament to Europe's rich cultural heritage spanning over two millennia. The photograph was taken around 1890, while the artwork itself dates back to 1626 and is credited to Giovanni Battista Soria. Every detail of the church's exterior is meticulously captured in this print, from its ornate portal and decorative building elements to its exquisite pilaster strips and windows adorned with lanterns. The tabernacle, tympanum, entablature, bell tower – all contribute to creating an awe-inspiring sight that resonates with Christian symbolism. The absence of people or any action in the scene allows viewers to focus solely on appreciating the architectural marvel before them. Furthermore, this street view provides a glimpse into Rome's bustling cityscape during that era. In addition to showcasing the church itself, Anderson skillfully includes various objects such as vases and candelabra within his composition. These details add depth and context while highlighting elements like crosses and coats of arms that symbolize religious devotion or represent specific families or institutions. Overall, Alinari has beautifully preserved this historical moment through Anderson's lens – capturing not only a stunning piece of architecture but also offering us a window into Europe's past glory.
