EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "View of Via Pietro Micca with the Church of St. Thomas in Turin" transports us back to the early 20th century, capturing a moment frozen in time. Taken between 1920 and 1930, this image showcases the architectural beauty and religious significance of Turin's urban landscape. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly the majestic Church of St. Thomas, standing tall with its intricate building elements and decorative sections. The church's bell tower proudly reaches towards the sky, symbolizing its importance within the Christian community. As our eyes wander beyond the church, we are drawn to Via Pietro Micca - a bustling road avenue that cuts through this vibrant cityscape. The scene depicts an era when automobiles were becoming increasingly prevalent as a method of transportation by land. This view offers a glimpse into daily life during that time period – people going about their business on foot or commuting in their automobiles. From this aerial perspective, we gain a bird's eye view of Turin itself – its rooftops forming an intricate tapestry against which these human activities unfold. It is fascinating to observe how architecture shapes not only physical spaces but also cultural identities. Mario Gabinio skillfully captures this snapshot in history without any commercial intentions; instead, he invites us to appreciate Turin's rich heritage and marvel at its evolving urban landscape. This print serves as both a visual reminder and historical documentation for future generations to cherish and study. In essence, "View of Via Pietro Micca with the Church of St. Thomas in Turin" encapsulates more than just buildings or roads; it encapsulates stories untold and memories preserved within each brick laid down over time.
