EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a wide view of Piazza Colonna in Rome, showcasing the grandeur of this historic square. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the imposing Column of Marcus Aurelius, which stands tall on the right side. This magnificent column dates back to the Antonine Period and serves as a remarkable testament to Roman art and ancient civilization. The photograph itself was taken around 1890, providing us with a glimpse into Rome's past. It beautifully showcases the architectural elements and decorative details that adorn the buildings surrounding Piazza Colonna. The intricate facades, courtyard frames, and commemorative structures all contribute to creating an enchanting atmosphere. In addition to capturing these architectural marvels, this photo also includes other fascinating elements. A fountain can be seen in the foreground, adding a touch of serenity to this bustling urban space. Furthermore, there are horses depicted in low relief sculptures nearby – a reminder of terrestrial mammals that once roamed freely through these streets. As we explore further into this snapshot from history, we notice various scenes depicting transportation methods commonly used during that time period. A coach can be spotted on one side of the street scene – an indication of how people traveled by land back then. Overall, this print by Anderson offers viewers a comprehensive view of Piazza Colonna and its surroundings during the late 19th century. It allows us to appreciate not only Rome's rich history but also its timeless beauty as captured through Leonardo Sormani's lens and Tommaso Della Porta's artistic vision.
