Capturing the Majestic Renaissance Architecture of Milan's Former Major Hospital
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph, taken between 1915-1920, showcases a stunning view of the front facade of Milan's former Major Hospital. The building itself is an exquisite example of early Renaissance architecture, dating back to its construction in 1456. The artist responsible for this magnificent creation is none other than Filarete, also known as Antonio Averulino. Collaborating with him was Francesco Maria Richini or Ricchini, whose artistic contributions enhanced the overall beauty and grandeur of this architectural masterpiece. As we delve into the intricate details captured by Alinari Fratelli through their lens, one cannot help but be mesmerized by the various styles and periods that influenced this structure. From its elegant arches and columns to its ornate capitals and cornices, every element exudes a sense of sophistication. The meticulous craftsmanship can be seen in the high relief sculptures adorning the tympanum and frieze. These sculptural works depict scenes from both European history and mythology, showcasing a harmonious blend between artistry and storytelling. Noteworthy features include two light windows that allow ample natural light to flood into the interior spaces while adding visual interest to the exterior facade. Additionally, single light windows are strategically placed throughout to create a balanced composition. This architectural marvel seamlessly combines elements from both Renaissance-Baroque styles across Europe during different periods spanning over centuries – truly reflecting Milan's rich cultural heritage. Alinari Fratelli has masterfully captured not only an image but also a glimpse into history through this photograph print. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity in design while immortalizing an iconic landmark that continues to inspire awe even today.
