EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the enchanting city of Venice, specifically Piazza S. Marco. Taken in 1896 by Kilburn, B. W. , this stereoscopic photograph captures a group portrait that exudes both grandeur and liveliness. In the foreground, we see a multitude of pigeons gracefully scattered across the square. These elegant birds, representing vertebrates in their natural habitat, add an element of serenity to the bustling scene. The backdrop showcases a magnificent building adorned with intricate architectural details and decorative sections; it is none other than a Christian church, standing tall as a symbol of religious devotion. The square itself is teeming with life - people from all walks of life gather here, forming an intriguing crowd full of associations and stories waiting to be discovered. Society and politics intertwine as individuals engage in animated conversations or go about their daily activities. Amidst this vibrant atmosphere, our attention is drawn towards an action-packed street scene unfolding before our eyes. From this vantage point, we are granted a panoramic view of the city's charm: its winding canals lined with gondolas gliding through tranquil waters. A flag proudly waves above the crowd – it bears the tricolore emblem which represents national pride and unity. This object serves as a reminder that even within such diverse scenes like these captured by Alinari's lens, there exists an underlying sense of patriotism that unites them all. As we delve into this historical masterpiece preserved on print for over a century now, let us appreciate not only its artistic value but also its ability to transport us back in time – allowing us to witness firsthand the beauty and complexity found within Venice's iconic Piazza S. Marco.
