EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent faade and lateral view of the Church of Santa Maria in Via Lata, a true architectural masterpiece by Pietro da Cortona. Located in the heart of Rome, this church is a testament to both Baroque and Renaissance-Baroque styles that have defined Europe's architectural landscape for centuries. The photograph, taken around 1940, beautifully captures the intricate details and grandeur of this historical gem. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every element - from the arches and building elements to the exquisite decorations adorning its walls. The capital, cornice, column, pilaster strip all contribute to creating an awe-inspiring sight. The image also highlights various architectural features such as doors, windows with their delicate frames, tympanum above them adding an extra touch of elegance. An open gallery can be seen on one side while houses line up along the street scene leading towards this majestic structure. In addition to showcasing the church itself, this photo provides a glimpse into Rome's bustling cityscape during that era. A cross stands tall at one corner serving as a reminder of its religious significance amidst everyday life. Pietro da Cortona's artistic brilliance shines through his work on display here. His mastery over architecture is truly commendable as he seamlessly blends different styles from different periods into one harmonious composition. This remarkable print by Anderson from Alinari allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the historical importance of this iconic Roman landmark. It serves as a timeless reminder of Europe's rich cultural heritage spanning across multiple millennia – an enduring symbol standing strong against time itself.
