EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of the Piazza Vecchia in Bergamo. In the foreground, we see a bustling square filled with people going about their daily lives. The architecture is truly remarkable, showcasing the late Gothic and Gothic styles that were prevalent during the Middle Ages. In the background, our eyes are drawn to the majestic Palazzo della Ragione, with its large ground gallery that exudes grandeur and elegance. To the right stands the City Tower, affectionately known as "Campanone" proudly reaching towards the sky. These iconic landmarks serve as a testament to Bergamo's rich history and architectural heritage. The photograph was taken around 1915-1920 by Alinari Fratelli, capturing a moment frozen in time from centuries past. It transports us back to an era where life moved at a slower pace and simplicity reigned supreme. Every element within this image tells a story - from intricate building elements to decorative sculptures adorning balconies and loggias. The presence of statues and monuments adds depth to this urban landscape while reminding us of those who came before us. One cannot help but notice a prominent clock tower standing tall amidst it all – an instrument measuring time for generations past and present. Its presence serves as a reminder that time moves forward relentlessly yet leaves behind traces of history etched into every stone. Alinari's photograph not only captures an exquisite view of Bergamo but also invites viewers to immerse themselves in its rich cultural tapestry. This artwork transcends commercial use; it is an artistic masterpiece that celebrates Europe's architectural legacy throughout different eras – from XII-XVI century structures representing first and second millenniums AD. As we gaze upon this stunning image, we are transported through time, allowing ourselves to appreciate both ancient craftsmanship and enduring beauty found within these walls.
