EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the late 19th century, capturing a timeless scene of architectural beauty and natural splendor. Entitled "The Furo Bridge on the Retrone river" this photograph by Alinari, Fratelli showcases an iconic landmark in Vicenza, Italy. In the foreground stands the majestic Furo Bridge, gracefully arching over the tranquil waters of the Retrone river. Its sturdy structure is a testament to human ingenuity and engineering prowess. The bridge's elegant design seamlessly blends with its surroundings, harmonizing with both nature and man-made elements. As our eyes wander towards the background, we are greeted by another masterpiece – the Palladian Basilica of Vicenza. This magnificent building dominates the skyline with its grandeur and intricate details. The rose window catches our attention immediately, radiating ethereal light through its delicate tracery. Industrial smokestacks rise in stark contrast against this picturesque landscape, reminding us of progress and modernity intertwining with tradition. Yet amidst these industrial elements lies a peaceful fishing spot where locals engage in their age-old trade. Nature also plays a significant role in this composition; vegetal elements frame both sides of the riverbank as if embracing this architectural marvel. Lush greenery adds vibrancy to an already breathtaking panorama while emphasizing harmony between man-made structures and Mother Nature herself. Dating back to approximately 1890, this photograph encapsulates not only historical significance but also artistic excellence captured by Alinari's lens. It invites viewers to appreciate not just one aspect but rather multiple layers within a single frame – architecture merging with landscape; industry juxtaposed against tranquility; human creations blending effortlessly into their natural habitat. This remarkable image serves as a visual time capsule that allows us to reflect upon history's interplay between humanity's creative endeavors and Earth's inherent beauty - all frozen within one exquisite moment captured long ago by Alinari, Fratelli.
