EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back to the enchanting cityscape of Turin in the late 19th century. The focal point is none other than the iconic Mole Antonelliana, proudly standing tall as an emblematic symbol of this vibrant Italian city. Captured around 1890 by Alessandro Antonelli, a renowned artist from that era, this photograph encapsulates not only his artistic prowess but also his deep appreciation for architectural marvels. The Mole Antonelliana itself was designed by him between 1862 and 1889, making it a testament to his visionary genius. As we delve into this image further, our eyes are drawn to the intricate details adorning this non-Christian religious structure. Its grandeur speaks volumes about its significance within Turin's cultural fabric – serving as both a synagogue and now housing a museum picture gallery dedicated to scientific and intellectual pursuits. The panoramic view offered by Brogi's lens allows us to witness not only the magnificence of the Mole Antonelliana but also grants us glimpses into the sprawling city below. It captures more than just architecture; it captures life unfolding on Turin's streets during that time period. This historical snapshot serves as a reminder that art has no boundaries or limitations when it comes to capturing moments frozen in time. As we admire this remarkable piece captured over a century ago, let us appreciate how it continues to transcend generations with its timeless beauty and evoke awe-inspiring emotions within all who gaze upon it.
