EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the XIV century, where we find ourselves standing before the magnificent high altar of the Church of San Pietro in Taormina. The intricate details of this Gothic masterpiece are beautifully captured by Brogi's lens, allowing us to appreciate every delicate carving and ornate design. The high altar stands tall and proud, commanding attention with its grandeur. It is a true testament to the skill and craftsmanship of artisans from the Middle Ages. Its presence fills the sacred space with an aura of reverence and spirituality. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we can't help but be transported to a different era - a time when Europe was marked by its first encounters with new ideas, cultural shifts, and religious fervor. This altar witnessed centuries of prayers, celebrations, and moments of solace for countless individuals who sought solace within these hallowed walls. The photograph itself was taken around 1910 by Alinari's talented photographer Brogi. Through his lens, he captures not only the physical beauty but also manages to convey a sense of history that surrounds this ancient artifact. This print serves as both a visual delight for art enthusiasts and a historical treasure for those interested in European heritage during the first millennium A. D. It reminds us that even though time passes relentlessly forward; remnants from our past continue to inspire awe and wonderment today.
