EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of Venus' chariot, a sled dating back to the XVII century. Preserved in all its glory within the majestic walls of Porto-Colleoni Castle in Thiene, this work is a testament to the opulence and grandeur of Baroque and Renaissance-Baroque styles. The photograph, taken around 1900, captures every intricate detail of this remarkable piece of art. The chariot itself is adorned with ornate carvings and delicate embellishments that depict fanciful animals from literature and fiction. These mythical creatures come alive as they pull the chariot on its journey through time. Set against a backdrop reminiscent of European landscapes from the first and second millenniums A. D. , this image transports us to an era where such magnificent vehicles were not only functional but also symbols of status and power. It evokes visions of noble ladies gracefully riding through picturesque countryside scenes, their elegant gowns billowing in the wind. The sled represents more than just a means of transportation; it embodies an entire scene and method for traversing land. Its presence speaks volumes about how people moved across vast distances during that period – relying on these beautifully crafted vehicles to carry them safely towards their destinations. Alinari's expert photography skillfully captures both the historical significance and artistic brilliance embodied by Venus' chariot. Through this lens, we are transported into a world where imagination meets reality – where mythological creatures roam freely alongside human civilization. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork frozen in time, we can't help but marvel at humanity's ability to create objects so intricately detailed yet imbued with such profound meaning.
