EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent façade of Palazzo dei Filippini in Rome, a masterpiece created by the brilliant architect Borromini. The building stands proudly in Piazza della Chiesa Nuova, exuding an enchanting blend of Baroque and Renaissance-Baroque styles. Dating back to the first half of the 17th century, this architectural gem has stood as a testament to Borromini's genius for centuries. The photograph was taken around 1935, capturing the timeless beauty and grandeur that still captivates visitors today. Every element of this façade is meticulously crafted with intricate details. From the ornate portal and decorative sections to the elegant columns and pilaster strips, each feature adds depth and character to this remarkable structure. The windows are adorned with delicate tabernacles while a majestic entablature crowns it all. One cannot help but be drawn to the balcony that graces one side of this imposing edifice. It offers a perfect vantage point for admiring both its own splendor and the breathtaking view beyond. The staircase leading up to Palazzo dei Filippini is another highlight worth mentioning. Its graceful design seamlessly combines elements from both Renaissance and Baroque periods, creating an exquisite visual experience for those who ascend its steps. Alinari Fratelli masterfully captured this iconic artwork through their lens, preserving not only Borromini's vision but also his legacy as one of Italy's most celebrated architects. This print serves as a window into history - transporting us back in time to witness firsthand the magnificence that continues to define Rome's architectural landscape even today.
