EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of the Stairway of the Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana, also known as the Laurentian Library, in Florence. The image showcases a flight of steps that embodies both Mannerism and Renaissance-Baroque styles, reflecting Europe's artistic periods from the first to second millennium A. D. The date of this remarkable photograph is estimated to be around 1890, while the artwork itself dates back to 1559. It was created by two renowned artists: Buonarroti Michelangelo (1475-1564) and Ammannati Bartolomeo (1511-1592). Their collaboration resulted in a masterpiece that stands as an epitome of architectural excellence. The marble balustrade adds elegance and sophistication to this magnificent structure.
