EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view of the Charter House of Pavia transports us back in time, showcasing the remarkable blend of architectural styles and periods that define this magnificent structure. Captured by photographer Folco Quilici in 1973, this print allows us to appreciate the intricate details and grandeur of a building that has stood for centuries. The Charter House of Pavia is a true testament to European artistry and craftsmanship, with its origins dating back to 1396. Designed by renowned artists such as Giovanni Giacomo Dolcebuono, Cristoforo Lombardo, Giovanni Solari, Guiniforte Solari, Amadeo Giovanni Antonio, and Benedetto Briosco; it represents a harmonious fusion of High Renaissance, Renaissance-Baroque styles. As we gaze upon this image, our eyes are drawn to the impressive facade adorned with elaborate decorations and sections. The courtyard beckons us into its tranquil embrace while the towering spires reach towards the heavens above. This religious sanctuary served as a Carthusian monastery where spirituality intertwined with artistic expression. The surrounding landscape showcases vast flatlands stretching beyond our line of sight. From this birds-eye view perspective captured by Quilici's lens, we gain an appreciation for both the architectural splendor and natural beauty that coexist within these grounds. With each passing year since its construction began over five centuries ago until its completion in 1542; this iconic landmark has witnessed countless historical events unfold throughout Europe's first and second millenniums. It stands as a symbol not only of faith but also resilience against time itself. In preserving this moment through Alinari's print collection, we can now marvel at the Charter House of Pavia from afar or immerse ourselves in every intricate detail up close.
