EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "View of St. John of Acri, photographed from the northeast" transports us back in time to the enchanting city of Acre, located in present-day Palestine. Taken around 1890 by the talented photographer Brogi Giacomo at his renowned Stabilimento fotografico Alinari, this image captures a mesmerizing view of the iconic St. John of Acri. The photograph showcases the architectural grandeur and religious significance of this magnificent structure. The dome and cupola rise majestically against the clear blue sky, commanding attention with their intricate detailing and impressive height. Every building element is meticulously captured, allowing viewers to appreciate both its overall design and individual decorative sections. From this vantage point in the northeast, we are treated to a breathtaking panorama that extends beyond just St. John's itself. The cityscape unfolds before our eyes as we glimpse rooftops, narrow streets bustling with activity, and even a cannon positioned strategically nearby—an intriguing object hinting at historical events that have unfolded within these ancient walls. Brogi Giacomo's skillful composition allows us to immerse ourselves fully into this moment frozen in time—a snapshot capturing not only an architectural marvel but also offering a glimpse into daily life during that era. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph print today, let it serve as a reminder of how photography can transport us across continents and centuries—allowing us to witness history unfold through our own eyes while appreciating artistry captured by visionaries like Brogi Giacomo.
