EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Aerial view of Enna: Castello di Lombardia" takes us on a journey back in time to the medieval era. The photograph, taken in 1970, showcases the grandeur and architectural brilliance of Enna Castle, also known as Castello di Lombardia. Enna Castle stands proudly atop a hill in Enna, Sicily, offering an impressive panoramic view of the surrounding landscape. Its construction dates back to the Gothic period between 1355 and 1377, making it a remarkable testament to Europe's rich history during the first and second millenniums A. D. The image captures every intricate detail of this magnificent fortress. From its imposing structure with towering walls and crenelated battlements to its ornate decorations and sections that reflect the artistic flair of the Middle Ages. It is evident that this castle served both military and defensive purposes throughout its existence. As we gaze upon this aerial view from a bird's eye perspective, we are transported into an era filled with tales of knights, chivalry, and epic battles. The castle's strategic location allowed for unparalleled views over vast stretches of land – a vantage point once used by ancient defenders to safeguard their territory. Quilici Folco has masterfully captured not only the physical beauty but also the historical significance embedded within these stone walls. This print serves as a reminder that architecture can transcend time itself; it is an art form that tells stories spanning centuries. Whether you appreciate Gothic architecture or have an affinity for European history, this artwork offers a glimpse into our collective past while showcasing Alinari's commitment to preserving cultural heritage through photography.
