EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the enchanting city of Bari, Italy. The image showcases the right side of the magnificent Basilica of San Nicola, with its prominent bell tower known as Torre del Catapano. The Basilica itself is a testament to Romanesque architecture, dating back to the medieval period between 1087 and 1300 AD. Its grandeur and historical significance make it an iconic landmark not only in Bari but also throughout Europe. As we gaze upon this remarkable structure captured by photographer Pietro Ronchetti in 1961, we are immediately drawn to its intricate details. The arches, building elements, and decorative sections all contribute to the overall beauty of this religious masterpiece. The loggia on the side adds a touch of elegance while providing shelter for those seeking solace within its walls. The tower stands tall as a symbol of strength and resilience that has withstood centuries of change. Every stone meticulously placed reflects the craftsmanship prevalent during that era. The single light window shines like a beacon, inviting worshippers inside to experience moments of spiritual connection. This photograph serves as a reminder not only of architectural brilliance but also highlights Christianity's profound influence on European history. It encapsulates both the first and second millenniums AD when faith played an integral role in shaping societies across continents. Ronchetti's skillful composition captures every nuance with precision, allowing us to appreciate this timeless work from Alinari without any commercial distractions. Let yourself be transported through time as you immerse yourself in this awe-inspiring piece that celebrates artistry, devotion, and human ingenuity at its finest
