EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the majestic beauty of The Badia Fiorentina, also known as Santa Maria Assunta della Badia Fiorentina, in Florence. The church, dating back to the Middle Ages, stands tall with its intricate architecture and historical significance. The focal point of this image is the 19th-century door, a faithful replica of the original crafted by Benedetto da Rovazzano. Its ornate design showcases delicate carvings and meticulous attention to detail. As one's gaze moves upward from the door, they are greeted by a series of pilaster strips adorned with decorative elements that add grandeur to the structure. The large window above the entrance allows soft light to filter through into the interior space, illuminating its sacredness. A lunette crowns this window with an exquisite high relief sculpture depicting religious motifs that evoke a sense of reverence and spirituality. Atop the building sits a crest or emblem that represents both its Christian identity and European heritage. This symbol serves as a visual reminder of its historical significance during both medieval times and throughout subsequent centuries. Captured around 1890 by Alinari Fratelli - renowned photographers at that time - this photograph not only documents an architectural masterpiece but also preserves it for future generations to appreciate. It serves as a testament to Arnolfo di Cambio's artistic prowess as he designed this magnificent church in 1285. As we admire this print today, we can't help but be transported back in time; imagining ourselves standing before those impressive doors and being enveloped in history. It reminds us how art has always been instrumental in communicating stories across generations – bridging gaps between different eras while preserving our cultural heritage for eternity.
