EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the late 19th century, offering a glimpse into the serene beauty of the Italian Riviera. The image showcases a breathtaking view of the shore near the town of Nervi in Genoa, with its most prominent feature being the majestic tower of Villa Serra-Grappolo. Standing tall and proud, this fortified tower exudes an air of military strength and defensive prowess. Its architectural grandeur is beautifully juxtaposed against the urban landscape surrounding it. As our eyes wander further, we are greeted by the vastness of the sea stretching out towards infinity. The composition captures both land and sea seamlessly, presenting a harmonious blend between nature's elements. A rugged cliff serves as a natural boundary between earth and water while adding an element of drama to this picturesque scene. Towering pine trees dotting the landscape add depth and texture to an already enchanting vista. Vegetation thrives along riverbanks that gently flow into azure waters, creating a tranquil atmosphere that invites contemplation and reflection. It is as if time stands still within this frame; one can almost hear whispers carried by gentle breezes rustling through leaves. Brogi's masterful photography skillfully immortalizes this moment in history - circa 1890 - allowing us to appreciate not only his artistry but also gain insight into life during that era on Italy's stunning coastline. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Alinari, we are transported back in time to experience firsthand what drew people then – just as it does now – to marvel at Genoa's Nervi shoreline: its timeless beauty etched forever in our hearts.
