EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Verona's historic Piazza delle Erbe, showcasing its timeless beauty and rich architectural heritage. The focal point of the image is the magnificent Verona Column, standing tall amidst a bustling square that has witnessed centuries of history unfold. Dating back to 1523, this splendid artwork by Michele Leoni epitomizes the High Renaissance style with its intricate detailing and harmonious proportions. The column itself serves as a testament to Verona's cultural significance, representing not only an architectural marvel but also a symbol of power and prestige. The juxtaposition between past and present is evident in this photograph taken in 1968. It transports us back to an era where Renaissance-Baroque styles dominated European artistry, while simultaneously reminding us of our connection to ancient civilizations that thrived during the first and second millenniums A. D. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene, our attention is drawn towards a majestic lion statue positioned at the base of the column. This representation goes beyond mere animal imagery; it embodies allegory and abstract concepts deeply rooted in human culture. Lions have long been regarded as symbols of strength, courage, and nobility – qualities that resonate with both terrestrial mammals like ourselves and vertebrates found across various ecosystems. Folco Quilici's masterful composition allows us to appreciate not only the artistic prowess behind Leoni's creation but also invites contemplation on humanity's enduring fascination with symbolism throughout history. This print from Alinari serves as a visual time capsule encapsulating multiple epochs within Europe's artistic evolution – from High Renaissance to Baroque styles – all contained within one frame for generations to admire.
