EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing a group of individuals standing proudly in front of the magnificent parish church of Santa Maria Assunta in Cellole, near San Gimignano. The photograph, taken around 1930 by Aurelio Monteverde from Alinari, transports us back to the Romanesque era of the Middle Ages. The church's impressive architecture takes center stage as its capital, building elements, and decorative sections are beautifully displayed. The grand facade with its intricate details draws our attention towards the lunette above the entrance. It is evident that this sacred place holds great significance for these individuals who have gathered here. As we examine each person in the portrait closely, their attire tells stories of fashion and clothing from another time. Some wear hats or headdresses that reflect their civilian or religious roles while others don military accessories. Their presence signifies a diverse group united by their shared interest in exploring this historical gem. This image not only serves as a testament to trips and tourism during that period but also highlights how people were drawn to structures like this parish church for both religious and cultural reasons. It reminds us of Europe's rich history spanning over multiple millennia. Aurelio Monteverde has skillfully captured this scene with his camera lens, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and significance of this architectural marvel even decades later. This remarkable print serves as an invaluable piece of artistry that connects us to our past while reminding us of the enduring power and allure found within ancient structures like Santa Maria Assunta Church in Cellole.
