EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of the Entrance to the Umberto I Gallery in Naples, a masterpiece crafted by Ernesto de Mauro between 1887-1890. The gallery stands as a testament to the artistic prowess of its time, showcasing the arts and handicrafts of the XIX century. The image transports us back to an era where Europe was flourishing with creativity and innovation. It offers a glimpse into the vibrant cultural scene that thrived during the Nineteenth century. As we admire this architectural marvel, we are reminded of how art has always been intertwined with history, shaping our understanding of different epochs. The composition is enriched by various elements that add depth and symbolism to this visual narrative. A majestic eagle soars above, representing strength and freedom while birds flutter around it, symbolizing harmony with nature. These vertebrates bring life to an otherwise static frame, reminding us that art can transcend mere representation. Intriguingly, amidst these natural motifs emerges a figure from literature or fiction - perhaps a putto - adding an element of mystery and enchantment to this already mesmerizing artwork. This juxtaposition highlights how imagination can seamlessly blend reality with fantasy. Dating back between 1879-1910 when this photograph was taken, it serves as both a historical document capturing an important moment in time but also as an artistic creation in itself. The skilled eye behind the lens belongs to Brogi from Alinari who expertly captured every intricate detail for posterity. As we contemplate this print today, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also its ability to transport us across centuries – allowing us to witness firsthand Europe's rich heritage during one of its most transformative periods: First and Second Millennium A. D. , specifically within those remarkable years spanning from 1887-1890 when Ernesto de Mauro brought his vision into existence through his architectural genius alongside collaborators Rocco Emanuele, Antonio Curri, and Paolo Boube.
