EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured lantern slide depicts the stunning Church of San Giacomo Maggiore in Bologna, Italy, a historical architectural masterpiece founded in 1267. The church, which houses an impressive collection of Renaissance artworks, is a significant landmark in the city's rich cultural heritage. San Giacomo Maggiore, meaning "St. James the Greater," is a Dominican church that has stood the test of time for over seven centuries. Its intricate facade, characterized by its beautiful rose window and elaborate sculptures, is a testament to the artistic and architectural prowess of the period. The interior of the church is equally breathtaking, with its high vaulted ceilings, ornate frescoes, and intricately carved columns. The church is home to numerous works of art, including the famous "Madonna and Child with Saints" by Ludovico Carracci, which is considered one of the masterpieces of the Bolognese School. This coloured lantern slide, part of the Boswell Collection, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the late 19th century when travelers would use lantern slides to share their experiences and discoveries with others. The Church of San Giacomo Maggiore in Bologna, with its historical significance and artistic beauty, continues to captivate visitors from around the world, making it a must-see destination for anyone exploring the wonders of Italy's artistic and historical heritage.
