EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "PDC-F-002117-0000" showcases a remarkable sculptured monument of a lion by the talented artist Lukas Ahorn. The photograph takes us back to the late 19th century, between 1880 and 1890, when this magnificent artwork graced a small park in Lucerna. Ahorn's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this sculpture. The lion stands proudly on a rock face, exuding strength and majesty. Its powerful presence commands respect as it gazes into the distance with an air of regality. This piece truly captures the essence of these terrestrial mammals - their gracefulness, power, and untamed beauty. The significance of this sculpture goes beyond its artistic value; it holds historical importance as well. Adorning many coats of arms or heraldic ornaments throughout history, lions have symbolized courage, nobility, and royalty. This particular emblematic representation carries that same weighty symbolism. Giorgio Sommer skillfully captured this timeless masterpiece through his lens. His photography allows us to appreciate Ahorn's artistry even today – over a century later – transporting us back to Switzerland's enchanting city of Lucern during its golden age. As we admire this stunning print by Alinari, let us marvel at how art has the power to transcend time and evoke emotions across generations. It serves as a reminder that creativity knows no bounds and can leave an indelible mark on our collective memory for centuries to come.
