EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning views of Genes (Genua) and Florence (Florentia), two iconic cities in Italy. The etching, created between 1572 and 1617 by Franz Hogenberg, takes us on a visual journey through time. The image is extracted from the renowned Civitates Orbis Terrarum (Atlas of World Cities) by Georg Braun and Franz Hogenberg, which was published over several decades. It offers a glimpse into the rich history and architectural beauty of these Italian gems. In this print, we are transported to Genoa's bustling harbor in Liguria, where ships dot the waterline against a backdrop of fortifications. The lighthouse stands tall as a guiding beacon for sailors navigating their way home. Moving inland to Florence, we are greeted with an exterior view of its magnificent cathedral dominating the skyline. The intricate details of the building showcase the grandeur that awaits within its walls. Through Luisa Ricciarini's lens, this engraving captures not only geographical features but also evokes a sense of awe at these historic cities' cultural significance. It serves as both an informative map and a work of art that transports viewers back in time to experience these remarkable places firsthand. As we admire this photo print, let us appreciate how it brings together history, geography, architecture, and artistic talent into one mesmerizing composition.
