EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "[Spanish Steps, Rome], ca. 1855" transports us back to the enchanting streets of Rome in the 19th century. Created by Pietro Dovizielli, this albumen silver print captures the timeless beauty of one of Italy's most iconic landmarks. The image showcases the grandeur of the Spanish Steps, with its elegant architecture and intricate details standing tall against a backdrop of history. The famous Barcaccia Fountain takes center stage, exuding a sense of tranquility as water gently cascades from its sculpted boat-shaped basin. Dovizielli's masterful composition allows us to appreciate not only the architectural marvels but also the religious significance that permeates throughout Rome. A Christian church can be seen in the distance, reminding us of Italy's rich spiritual heritage. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to a different era – a time when horse-drawn carriages traversed these very steps and locals went about their daily lives amidst such breathtaking surroundings. The obelisk at Piazza di Spagna stands tall as an enduring symbol of ancient Roman civilization. Preserved by The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this piece serves as a window into history for all who behold it. It is both an artistic masterpiece and a testament to Pietro Dovizielli's skill in capturing moments frozen in time. With every glance at this remarkable image, we are reminded that even centuries later, Rome continues to captivate
