EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the enchanting city of Milan, where we are presented with a stunning view of the Church of San Lorenzo Maggiore. The intricate details of its facade, tiburium, and bell tower are beautifully captured by Alinari, Fratelli. The church's facade is a testament to the exquisite arts and handicrafts of the 19th century. Every element tells a story - from the arches and pilaster strips that adorn its walls to the grand dome that crowns this architectural masterpiece. The capital showcases delicate carvings while the cupola stands tall as a symbol of divine inspiration. As our eyes wander through this image, we notice an array of decorative elements such as windows, lanterns, tympanums, drums, and even a majestic bell tower reaching towards the heavens. These features speak volumes about Europe's rich cultural heritage during both the first and second millennium A. D. The date inscribed on this photograph takes us back to 1956 when it was captured by Alinari himself. However, it is important to note that this artwork dates back even further to 1894 when Cesare Nava poured his heart into creating this architectural marvel. The composition invites us to appreciate not only Milan's historical significance but also highlights how art transcends time. This print serves as a reminder that beauty can be found in every corner if we take a moment to truly observe our surroundings. Let your imagination soar as you explore each detail within this remarkable piece - from stairs leading up gracefully like whispers from centuries past to three-light windows inviting light into sacred spaces. Allow yourself to be transported through time with "The Facade" – an extraordinary glimpse into Milan's architectural heritage brought alive by Alinari's lens.
