EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting Piazza Navona in Rome, transformed into a surreal water wonderland. Taken around 1880, it showcases the timeless beauty of this iconic square flooded with water. The image transports us back to the Baroque and Renaissance-Baroque periods, when Europe flourished with artistic brilliance. Piazza Navona is renowned for its stunning fountain, which takes center stage in this photograph. Created by the masterful Gian Lorenzo Bernini in 1651, it exemplifies his genius as an artist. This baroque masterpiece stands tall amidst the watery scene, reflecting both elegance and grandeur. The flooding of Piazza Navona adds a touch of mystery to this already mesmerizing composition. It evokes an allegorical representation of an abstract concept or symbol that lies beyond our grasp. Amidst these waterscapes emerges a male figure, his nude human body embodying strength and vulnerability simultaneously. As we gaze upon this print from Alinari's collection, we are transported through time and space. We find ourselves immersed in ancient Rome during the first and second millennium A. D. , witnessing history unfold before our eyes. While the photographer remains unidentified, their skill in capturing such a breathtaking moment cannot be denied. Through their lens, they have immortalized not only Piazza Navona but also its profound connection to artistry and human expression. Let this photograph serve as a reminder that even amidst chaos and transformation – whether metaphorical or literal – beauty can still emerge unscathed.
