EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a side view of the majestic Royal Palace, located on Via Baldi in Genoa. The architectural masterpiece is a harmonious blend of Baroque and Renaissance-Baroque styles, representing the rich history and cultural heritage of Europe during the First and Second Millennium A. D. Originally designed by Pier Francesco Cantone and Michele Moncino for Stefano Baldi, this iconic structure underwent refurbishment in the 18th century under the guidance of architect Carlo Fontana at the request of Eugenio Durazzo. The result is an awe-inspiring building that stands as a testament to human creativity and ingenuity. The photograph, taken around 1890, captures every intricate detail with remarkable clarity. From the ornate balustrade to meticulously crafted building elements, each aspect contributes to its grandeur. The elaborate decorations adorning its facade exude elegance while reflecting the artistic sensibilities prevalent during that era. One cannot help but be drawn towards the magnificent terrace with its commanding presence overlooking Genoa's bustling streets below. The windows reveal glimpses into luxurious interiors filled with opulence and splendor. The courtyard invites visitors to step into a world frozen in time, where history whispers secrets from centuries past. The roofline proudly displays a tympanum adorned with intricate carvings that tell stories untold. Even seemingly mundane objects like shutters become works of art when viewed through Brogi's lens. This print serves as both a visual feast for admirers of architecture and an invaluable historical artifact capturing an important period in Genoa's illustrious past. It transports viewers back in time, allowing them to appreciate not only Fontana Carlo's genius but also pay homage to Cantone, Pier Francesco, Moncino Michele - all masterminds behind this extraordinary creation.
