EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the enchanting city of Salta, Argentina. The focal point of this image is the magnificent façade of a baroque church, showcasing the architectural brilliance that defines this historic city. The intricate details of the building elements and decorations are beautifully captured by photographer Pietro Ronchetti. Every section of this façade tells a story, from the elegant pilaster strips that frame the entrance to the towering bell tower that reaches towards the heavens. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can't help but feel a sense of awe and reverence for its Christian symbolism. This religious structure stands as a testament to faith and devotion, inviting visitors to step inside and experience its sacred atmosphere. The grand staircase leading up to the entrance adds an element of grandeur, beckoning worshippers and tourists alike to ascend into spiritual contemplation. The string course running along the exterior walls adds another layer of visual interest, highlighting both craftsmanship and attention to detail. Dating back to 1956-1957, this print captures not only a moment frozen in time but also showcases how architecture has stood strong throughout history. It serves as a reminder that beauty transcends generations and continues to inspire admiration even decades later. Ronchetti's skillful composition allows us to appreciate every nuance within this remarkable scene. As we admire his work, let us be transported into an era where artistry met spirituality on these very streets in Salta, Argentina – forever preserved through photography by Alinari.
