EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the somber scene of the construction site where the church and convent of Saint Dominica in Genoa once stood. Painted by Luigi Garibbo around 1825, this watercolor artwork showcases the artist's attention to detail and skillful use of colors. The image depicts a moment in history when destruction meets creation, as the old structures are being demolished to make way for something new. The viewer can almost feel the weight of history and hear echoes from centuries past within these crumbling walls. Garibbo's brushstrokes beautifully convey both the grandeur and decay of these architectural marvels. The intricate details on each brick seem to tell their own story, while vibrant hues bring life to an otherwise melancholic setting. As we gaze upon this painting, we are transported back in time to witness a significant chapter in Genoa's rich heritage. It reminds us that progress often comes at a cost – here symbolized by the loss of religious sanctuaries that once held great significance for many. Luisa Ricciarini has expertly captured this historical moment through her lens, preserving it for generations to come. This artwork serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst destruction, there is beauty worth cherishing and remembering.
