EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "PDC-F-003129-0000" takes us back in time to Rome during the late 19th century. The image showcases a mesmerizing view of the iconic Pantheon and its majestic fountain in the foreground. Standing proudly on either side of the fountain are four charming kiosks, adding a touch of commercial vibrancy to this historic scene. The photograph was taken between January 1st, 1865, and December 31st, 1875, capturing an era when Rome was undergoing significant transformations. The artistic collaboration between Giacomo Della Porta and Leonardo Sormani is evident in their meticulous attention to detail while immortalizing this architectural masterpiece. Dating back to 1575, the Pantheon stands as a testament to ancient Roman engineering prowess. Its columned facade exudes grandeur while showcasing various building elements that have stood the test of time. A bell tower gracefully rises above it all, further enhancing its ethereal beauty. In contrast to its non-Christian origins as a mausoleum for Roman emperors, we see how Christianity has embraced this magnificent structure over centuries. It now serves as a church—a religious temple where worshippers gather under its awe-inspiring dome. The presence of a tent-like object nearby adds intrigue to the composition—perhaps hinting at ongoing renovations or temporary structures erected for special events within this historical site's premises. Lastly, an obelisk punctuates the background—an enduring symbol of ancient Egyptian culture adopted by Romans throughout history. Through this remarkable photograph captured by an unidentified author from Alinari's collection, we are transported back in time—immersing ourselves in Rome's rich architectural heritage and witnessing how different cultures intertwine seamlessly within one frame.
