This photo print, titled "MFC-S-003139-0004" transports us back in time to the enchanting city of Florence during the late 19th or early 20th century. The image beautifully captures the magnificent Church of Santa Maria Novella, as seen from the bustling piazza that shares its name. The church's grand facade dominates the frame, showcasing its remarkable architectural elements and intricate decorations. Every detail is meticulously preserved in this snapshot, allowing us to appreciate the craftsmanship of renowned artists such as Sisto, fra' Giovanni da Campi, fra' Ristoro, fra' Talenti, and Jacopo. Dating back to between 1221 and 1360, this awe-inspiring religious structure stands tall against a backdrop of urban life. The square surrounding it bustles with activity; people going about their daily routines add a sense of liveliness to this historic scene. Notably featured in the foreground is an obelisk-like sculpture that adds further character to the composition. Its presence hints at both artistic expression and spiritual significance within this vibrant community.
