EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Alinari, Fratelli transports us back in time to the early 20th century, specifically between 1915 and 1920. The image showcases a breathtaking view of the posterior part of Loreto's Basilica della santa casa, with its imposing bastion and fortified walls. The architectural elements of this sacred structure are truly remarkable. The dome or cupola stands tall at the center, commanding attention with its grandeur. Every intricate detail is captured flawlessly in this photograph - from the building's decorative sections to its sturdy turret that adds an air of strength and resilience. It is impossible not to be awestruck by the military and defensive aspects incorporated into this religious sanctuary. The walls surrounding the basilica serve as a testament to both its spiritual significance and historical importance as a fortress-like structure. As we delve deeper into this image, we cannot overlook the profound Christian symbolism embedded within these walls. This basilica holds immense religious value for believers worldwide, known as a place where miracles have occurred throughout history. Alinari's masterful composition allows us to appreciate every aspect of this architectural marvel while also conveying a sense of reverence for its spiritual purpose. Through his lens, he captures not just bricks and mortar but also faith and devotion. This print serves as more than just an artistic representation; it acts as a portal through which we can glimpse into an era long gone yet preserved forever in Alinari's work. It invites us to reflect on our own beliefs while marveling at human ingenuity in creating such awe-inspiring structures dedicated to worshiping something greater than ourselves.
