EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent view of the faade of the Royal Palace, located on Via Baldi in Genoa. The architectural structure depicted in this image was originally designed by Pier Francesco Cantone and Michele Moncino for Stefano Baldi. However, during the eighteenth century, Eugenio Durazzo commissioned architect Carlo Fontana to refurbish it, adding his own touch to its grandeur. The building itself is a true testament to both Baroque and Renaissance-Baroque styles that dominated Europe during the First and Second Millennium A. D. Its historical significance dates back to the XVII-XVIII centuries when it first came into existence under Fontana's expert guidance. As we delve deeper into this photograph, our eyes are drawn towards various elements that make up this remarkable structure. From intricately decorated windows with beautifully crafted shutters to an exquisite tympanum adorning its entrance, every detail speaks volumes about the craftsmanship involved. In addition to showcasing architectural brilliance, this photo also captures a lively street scene surrounding the palace. We can see people going about their daily lives near a newsstand while others engage in commercial activities nearby. Beyond these immediate surroundings lies a breathtaking view of Genoa cityscape stretching out before us. It provides us with a glimpse into how life may have unfolded within these walls throughout history. Preserved through time by Alinari's lens, this print allows us to appreciate not only the artistry behind such structures but also offers insight into European architecture from different periods. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and invites us to explore further into Genoa's past.
