EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the ancient city of Lecce, Italy. The image showcases the interior of Lecce's Roman Amphitheater, a magnificent structure that has withstood the test of time. Dating back to the Antonine and Imperial periods of Ancient Rome, this amphitheater stands as a testament to Europe's rich history and ancient civilization. The focal point of this photograph is not only the grandeur of the amphitheater but also the charming addition of potted cactus plants adorning its steps. These succulent plants bring life and vibrancy to an otherwise ancient stone structure, creating a unique juxtaposition between nature and architecture. Taken in 1931 by Anderson, this artwork captures both the architectural elements and decorative sections that make up this historical landmark. The stairs leading up to the seating area provide an inviting pathway for visitors to explore while immersing themselves in centuries-old history. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but imagine what it must have been like during its prime – filled with spectators eagerly awaiting performances or gladiatorial battles within these very walls. It serves as a reminder that even after all these years, structures like these continue to inspire awe and admiration. Alinari has beautifully captured not just a moment frozen in time but also an entire era encapsulated within one frame. This print allows us to appreciate both the architectural brilliance and natural beauty found within Lecce's Roman Amphitheater—a true treasure from our past that continues to captivate audiences today.
