Alps from Verona, Italy
" The strange sweeping loop formed by the junctions of the Alps and Appenines [encloses]... the great basin of Lombardy... All the torrents which descend from the southern slope of the High Alps and from the northern slope of the Appenines meet concentrically in the recess of mountain bay which the two ridges enclose; every fragment which thunder breaks out of their battlements, and every grain of dust which the summer rain washes from their pastures is at last laid at rest in the blue sweep of the Lombardic plain." - Ruskin Date: 1904

EDITORS COMMENTS
Breathtaking View of the Alps and Appenines from Verona, Italy (1904) This photograph presents the stunning convergence of the Alps and Appenines as seen from the enchanting city of Verona, Italy. The image, taken in 1904, showcases the unique, sweeping loop formed by the junctions of these two iconic mountain ranges. The Alps, with their towering peaks and snow-capped summits, gracefully give way to the more rolling hills of the Appenines. The two mountain ranges enclose the vast, fertile basin of Lombardy, creating a picturesque mountainous landscape that has captivated artists, writers, and travelers for centuries. Every torrent that descends from the southern slope of the High Alps and the northern slope of the Appenines meets in the recess of this mountain bay. The waters, carrying the essence of the mountains, eventually find their rest in the tranquil, blue expanse of the Lombardic plain. John Ruskin, a renowned English art critic and social thinker, once described this scene as 'the great basin of Lombardy, enclosed by the two ridges.' His words beautifully encapsulate the essence of this photograph, inviting us to ponder the natural wonders that unfold in the heart of the Italian Alps. The Alps and Appenines have long been celebrated for their breathtaking beauty and historical significance. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich tapestry of the Italian landscape, inviting us to appreciate the majesty and grandeur of nature.
