EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Column of San Marco in Piazza delle Erbe, located in the enchanting city of Verona. Erected in 1523 based on a drawing by Michele Leoni, this iconic monument stands as a testament to the rich history and artistic brilliance of the Renaissance era. The column itself is a harmonious blend of High Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles, reflecting the cultural influences that shaped Europe during this period. Its intricate details and grandeur evoke a sense of awe and admiration for the craftsmanship of its creators. Notably, the photograph captures an important addition made to the column in 1886 - a magnificent lion sculpture. This replacement was necessary due to the destruction suffered by its predecessor during the fall of Repubblica Veneta. The lion holds significant symbolic meaning as it represents strength, power, and resilience. Beyond being an animal representation or allegory, this lion becomes an abstract concept and symbolizes both historical events and enduring values. It serves as a reminder of Verona's tumultuous past while also embodying courage and fortitude in overcoming adversity. Alinari Fratelli masterfully captured this image between 1915-1920 ca. , preserving not only its visual beauty but also freezing moments from different periods within one frame. Through their lens, we are transported back through time to witness firsthand these remarkable architectural marvels that have withstood centuries. As we gaze upon this extraordinary print by Alinari Fratelli, we are reminded that art has no expiration date; it continues to inspire us across generations while connecting us with our shared heritage.
