EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Dome of the Church of San Salvatore in Lauro, a true architectural gem nestled in the heart of Rome. The church's rich history dates back to its reconstruction in 1594, under the visionary plan by Ottaviano Mascherino. Its construction was finally completed between 1727 and 1734, resulting in a breathtaking masterpiece that seamlessly blends Baroque and Renaissance styles. The dome itself stands as a testament to human ingenuity and artistic prowess. Rising majestically into the sky, it commands attention with its grandeur and intricate details. Adorned with elaborate decorations and sections, every inch reflects an era defined by opulence and creativity. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph taken around 1938, we are transported back through time to witness this architectural marvel at its finest. The artist behind this awe-inspiring creation is none other than Ottavio Mascherino himself – his genius immortalized within these walls. The image captures not only the dome but also various elements that contribute to its overall splendor: from the lantern atop it illuminating Rome's skyline to the drum supporting its weight with grace. Even a single light window adds charm while allowing natural sunlight to filter inside. This photograph serves as a reminder of Europe's rich heritage spanning across centuries – from ancient times until now. It encapsulates both Baroque and Renaissance influences prevalent during different periods throughout history. Alinari Fratelli has expertly captured this iconic landmark, preserving it for generations to come. As we admire their workmanship, let us appreciate how architecture can transcend time and inspire awe even decades after being immortalized through photography.
