EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Interior of the chapel of Rosario in the basilica of St. Giovanni e Paolo in Venice" captures a moment frozen in time after a devastating fire ravaged this magnificent structure on the night of August 16,1867. The destruction caused by the flames is evident as large parts of its once opulent architecture lie in ruins. The photograph beautifully showcases the intricate details and craftsmanship that adorned this sacred space before tragedy struck. Created by Vittoria Alessandro and Francesco di Bernardino between 1582-1608, this chapel was a testament to their artistic prowess. Every element within it exuded religious significance and devotion. Despite the devastation, remnants of its former glory can still be seen through fragments scattered across the floor. The altar stands as a resilient symbol amidst charred remains, reminding us of faith's endurance even in times of despair. Delicate sculptures and statues that once adorned these walls now bear marks from heat and smoke but retain an ethereal beauty nonetheless. The photographer behind this poignant image is Pietro Bertoja from Alinari, who expertly captured both sorrow and resilience within one frame. His lens immortalizes not only physical damage but also spiritual strength found within these hallowed walls. Located within Venice's Church of SS. Giovanni and Paolo, the Chapel of The Rosario holds historical significance for both locals and visitors alike. This photograph serves as a reminder that even after great loss, art endures to tell stories beyond mere words or descriptions.
