EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Masonry Arch" takes us on a journey through time, capturing the essence of architectural mastery. Taken in 1989 by Filiberto Pittini, this print showcases the beauty and intricacy of a masonry arch. The image transports us to an era where craftsmanship was revered and attention to detail was paramount. The arch stands tall and proud, its sturdy structure commanding our admiration. Each stone meticulously placed, forming a symphony of strength and elegance. As we gaze upon this architectural marvel, we are drawn into the world of building elements and decoration. The play of light and shadows accentuates every curve and contour, highlighting the artistry behind its creation. It is as if each brick tells a story – one that speaks volumes about human ingenuity. Pittini's lens captures not only the physicality but also the soul of this magnificent structure. We can almost feel the weight it carries; witness centuries pass by as it remains steadfast against time's relentless march. This photograph invites us to reflect on architecture's ability to transcend mere functionality - it becomes poetry frozen in stone. Its grandeur reminds us that even in our modern age dominated by steel and glass skyscrapers, there is still room for appreciation for traditional craftsmanship. "Masonry Arch" serves as a testament to both past achievements in architecture while inspiring future generations with its timeless beauty. It urges us to look beyond what meets the eye - encouraging contemplation on how buildings shape our lives and connect us with history. In Pittini's hands, this simple masonry arch transforms into an emblematic symbol representing humanity's triumph over nature through creativity and vision.
