EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the breathtaking view of the apse of the Church of S. Maria Antiqua in Rome. Taken from one of the vestibule rooms of the Imperial Palaces on the Palatine Hill, this image showcases the remarkable architectural beauty and historical significance of this ancient church. At the center of the frame stands the schola cantorum basement, a prominent feature within the Roman Forum. The Church of S. Maria Antiqua itself is a testament to Romanesque architecture, dating back to both the Middle Ages and Europe's first and second millenniums A. D. The photograph, believed to have been taken around 1890, offers a glimpse into history as it captures an artwork that dates back even further - to VI sec. XIII (13th century) and 1617. Every detail in this image tells a story; from its stairway leading up towards unknown destinations, to its archeological elements such as exedra and tribune. The building sections are adorned with intricate decorations that speak volumes about ancient craftsmanship. The architecture showcased here is nothing short of awe-inspiring; balustrades line walkways while capitals grace columns throughout. The nave stretches out before us with graceful arches forming arcades that lead our gaze into an expansive landscape filled with ruins. This print by Anderson from Alinari invites us to explore not just a single moment frozen in time but also centuries worth of history etched into every stone and curve captured within its frame. It serves as a reminder that Rome's rich cultural heritage continues to captivate audiences across generations.
