EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the enchanting city of Florence, Italy. The image captures the inside of the Loggia dei Lanzi, a magnificent open-air gallery located in Piazza della Signoria. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene, our eyes are drawn towards Via della Ninna, a narrow street that beckons us to explore its hidden treasures. The Loggia dei Lanzi itself is an architectural masterpiece, showcasing elements of Mannerism, Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods. Its grandeur is further enhanced by the presence of exquisite sculptures that adorn its walls. Among these masterpieces stands proudly a statue depicting Perseus slaying Medusa - a symbol of strength and heroism from Greco-Roman mythology. The artist behind this awe-inspiring artwork is none other than Benvenuto Cellini, a renowned sculptor who lived during the 16th century. His attention to detail and mastery over his craft are evident in every curve and contour of this magnificent sculpture. As we immerse ourselves in this photograph taken around 1890, we can't help but marvel at how it encapsulates centuries of history within its frame. It serves as a visual testament to Europe's rich cultural heritage spanning across the first and second millenniums A. D. Brogi's skillful photography allows us to appreciate not only the artistic beauty captured within this print but also offers us a glimpse into daily life during that era. We can almost imagine ourselves strolling along Via della Ninna alongside Florentines from long ago – their footsteps echoing through time. This print from Alinari invites us on an unforgettable journey through artistry, mythology, and European history – all encapsulated within one remarkable image.
