EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Balocchi Vincenzo transports us back in time to the enchanting city of Orvieto. Taken between 1955 and 1965, this image showcases the architectural marvels that define this ancient Italian gem. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly the apse, exedra, and tribune of a magnificent building. Every element of its design exudes grandeur and sophistication, capturing our attention with its intricate decoration and sections. The architecture stands as a testament to the skill and artistry of those who crafted it. As we explore further into the frame, our eyes are drawn to the surrounding urban landscape. The rooftops create a harmonious mosaic against the sky, each house contributing to an overall structure that seems perfectly integrated within its environment. This view offers a glimpse into daily life in Orvieto during that era – bustling streets filled with people going about their routines. The composition also allows us to appreciate both close-up details and sweeping vistas simultaneously. While focusing on specific elements like buildings or decorations, we can still admire an expansive view of the city stretching out before us. It's as if we are standing on a vantage point overlooking Orvieto's beauty from afar. Balocchi Vincenzo has masterfully captured not only architectural brilliance but also imbued this photograph with a sense of nostalgia for times gone by. Through his lens, he invites us to step into history and experience Orvieto's charm firsthand. This Alinari print serves as more than just an artistic piece; it becomes a portal through which we can immerse ourselves in another era while appreciating timeless beauty at every glance.
