EDITORS COMMENTS
This stereoscopic photograph transports us back in time to the enchanting city of Verona. Taken around 1895, it offers a mesmerizing view from the Ponte delle Navi, showcasing the ancient mills seemingly "floating on the Adige" river. The majestic Fortress of S. Pietro proudly stands in the background, adding an element of grandeur to this picturesque scene. The image captures not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects different periods of history. The artwork itself dates back to 1389 and was revived between 1852-56 during the nineteenth century's revival styles. It serves as a testament to Europe's rich cultural heritage spanning over two millennia - from its first millennium A. D. until present times. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, our eyes are drawn towards the watermill structures that dot the riverside landscape. These mills were once vital for farming and country life, symbolizing human ingenuity harnessing nature's power for sustenance and progress. In contrast to these peaceful scenes lies the imposing Fortress of S. Pietro, standing tall against the horizon with its military and defensive architecture. This fortification reminds us of Verona's strategic importance throughout history as it guarded against potential threats while preserving its rich cultural legacy. Alas, we owe our gratitude to an unidentified author who captured this breathtaking view through their lens and preserved it for generations to come. As we admire this piece of artistry, let us immerse ourselves in Verona's timeless beauty and appreciate how even centuries-old photographs can transport us into another era – where past meets present on paper.
