EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the timeless beauty of Saint Peter's Square and the Spina di Borgo in Rome. Taken from the terrace of the magnificent Basilica of Saint Peter, this image transports us back to a bygone era, around 1900. The composition showcases the grandeur and architectural brilliance that defines this iconic square. The vastness of Saint Peter's Square is emphasized by its symmetrical design, with rows of columns leading towards the majestic basilica at its center. The absence of crowds allows us to appreciate every intricate detail, from the ornate decorations on the building elements to the open gallery that encircles it. In contrast to today's view, we witness a different landscape before the construction of Via della Conciliazione. The Spina di Borgo stands proudly as a reminder of ancient Roman history, while an obelisk column adds further historical significance to this already awe-inspiring scene. The urban panorama captured here reveals not only a square but also an entire neighborhood surrounding it. This print offers us a glimpse into everyday life in Rome during that time period – people going about their daily routines against a backdrop filled with naval and river transportation structures. Brogi's artistic eye has immortalized this moment in history for generations to come. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded not only of Rome's rich cultural heritage but also our own connection to these historic landmarks. Whether you are an architecture enthusiast or simply captivated by stunning cityscapes, this print serves as both a commemorative piece and an invitation to explore Rome through time.
