EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the magnificent Portal of the Verona Cathedral, a true masterpiece of Romanesque architecture. The photograph, taken around 1900 by Alinari, Fratelli, beautifully captures the intricate details and grandeur of this historic structure. The Verona Cathedral's portal is a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of its creator, Nicolaus (Nicol), who designed it in 1139 during the Middle Ages. Every element of this architectural marvel tells a story - from the arches and columns that support its weight to the decorative sections that adorn its surface. One cannot help but be drawn to the prothyrum at the center of this portal. Its watch-like instrument serves as both an aesthetic embellishment and a symbol of time measurement. It stands as a reminder that this cathedral has witnessed centuries pass by, bridging two millennia since its creation. As we gaze upon this photograph, our eyes are naturally drawn towards two light windows on either side of the portal. These windows not only allow natural light to illuminate the interior but also serve as symbolic representations of enlightenment and spirituality. The Verona Cathedral's timeless beauty is further enhanced by Alinari's masterful composition and attention to detail in capturing every aspect with precision. This print allows us to appreciate not only Nicol's artistic vision but also Europe's rich cultural heritage during these first and second millenniums A. D. Let us cherish this remarkable piece of history captured through Alinari's lens - an exquisite blend between artistry and documentation that brings forth memories from long ago while preserving them for generations yet unborn.
