EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Untitled (Round Building with Clock), c. 1857" transports us back to the enchanting city of Rome in the 19th century. Created by the talented artist Robert MacPherson, this albumen print is part of his collection called "Photographs of Views of Rome". The image captures a magnificent round building adorned with an elegant clock, standing proudly against the backdrop of ancient Roman architecture. This structure is none other than Castel Sant'Angelo, also known as the Castle of St Angelo. Its rich history dates back to Emperor Hadrian's reign and has served various purposes throughout centuries. The composition beautifully showcases the bridge over River Tiber leading towards this grand castle-mausoleum hybrid. The statues that line its path add a touch of artistic allure to this already picturesque scene. MacPherson's attention to detail and mastery in capturing light and shadows make this albumen silver print truly remarkable. As we gaze upon it, we are transported not only through time but also into a world where art meets history. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago, this photograph serves as a testament to MacPherson's skill as well as his dedication to preserving Italy's cultural heritage through his lens. It invites us to appreciate both the architectural marvels and natural beauty that define Rome—a city steeped in history and brimming with artistic treasures.
