EDITORS COMMENTS
The Lower Colonnade: A Timeless Tribute to Eternity In this photo print, we are transported back to the 19th century, where neoclassical architecture flourished in Europe. The image showcases the lower colonnade situated to the east of the Staglieno Monumental Cemetery in Genoa, Italy. Designed by the renowned civic architect Giovan Battista Resasco, this architectural marvel stands as a testament to his visionary genius. The photograph was taken around 1890, capturing a moment frozen in time when art and craftsmanship converged seamlessly. Resasco's masterpiece dates back even further, originating from around 1840. Its timeless beauty has endured through generations and continues to captivate viewers today. As our eyes wander across the frame, we are drawn into an intricate world of columns, building elements, and exquisite decorations. The vaulted portico leads us into a gallery adorned with stunning sculptures that pay homage to Christian beliefs and funerary traditions. Every element within this structure exudes elegance and reverence for those who have passed on. Each tomb tells a story of lives lived and memories cherished. It is here that grief finds solace amidst grandeur; it is here that love transcends time itself. This artwork by Giovanni Battista Resasco captures not only his exceptional talent but also serves as a reflection of an era marked by artistic brilliance. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history preserved through photography by Brogi from Alinari collection, let us be reminded of our own mortality while cherishing every precious moment life bestows upon us.
