EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent statue of Gaius Plinius Cecilius Secundus, famously known as Pliny the Younger. Created by the talented Jacopo and Tommaso Rodari, this remarkable work of art adorns the facade of the Cathedral of Como in Lombardy, Italy. The statue itself is a testament to the Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles that flourished during Europe's first and second millenniums. Its intricate details and lifelike representation transport viewers back to XV-XVI century Italy, where Pliny lived and made significant contributions to literature and philosophy. In this photograph taken around 1920-1930, we witness a harmonious blend of history, culture, and artistic brilliance. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every aspect - from Pliny's dignified pose to his meticulously crafted clothing that reflects the fashion trends of that era. Placed against a backdrop reminiscent of ancient times, this image captures not only Pliny but also signifies an era marked by intellectual growth and communication through writing. The inclusion of books and writing instruments symbolizes Pliny's profound impact on literature as well as his role as an influential communicator during his time. Alinari Fratelli has masterfully captured this extraordinary artwork with their lens, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even decades later. This print serves as a visual gateway into history while reminding us of the enduring legacy left behind by great minds like Gaius Plinius Cecilius Secundus.
