EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment frozen in time during the historic procession held in Florence in 1887. The focal point of the image is a Florentine noble on horseback, adorned in an exquisite historic costume that transports us back to a bygone era. The nobleman's regal presence is enhanced by his confident posture and commanding gaze, reflecting the grandeur of this significant event. The procession itself was organized to celebrate the inauguration of the new façade of the Cathedral in Florence, marking an important milestone for the city. This photograph serves as a testament to both historical significance and artistic excellence, capturing not only a specific moment but also preserving cultural heritage. Every detail within this frame tells its own story - from the intricate clothing worn by both man and horse to their meticulously crafted headdresses. The flag fluttering proudly behind them symbolizes unity and patriotism while adding movement to an otherwise still scene. In addition to showcasing nobility, this photograph also offers glimpses into society and politics at that time. Various instruments, insignias, emblems, and accessories carried or worn by those participating hint at their roles within society – be it military or civilian. Photographed by Alinari Fratelli - renowned for their mastery of capturing timeless moments - this print exemplifies their exceptional skill in documenting history through visual storytelling. It serves as a window into another world; one where tradition meets progress against the backdrop of Florence's magnificent Cathedral. As we admire this remarkable image today, we are reminded not only of its aesthetic beauty but also its ability to transport us back more than a century ago when horses were terrestrial mammals carrying humans through life's most momentous occasions dressed impeccably for all eyes upon them.
