EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a momentous event in the Christian religion - the solemn ostension of The Sacra Sindone in Turin. Taken by Pia Secondo, this print transports us back to the dates between May 25th and June 2nd, 1898, when believers from all corners of the world flocked to witness this holy relic. The image showcases The Sacra Sindone, also known as the Holy Shroud, which holds immense significance for Christians worldwide. This revered object is believed to be the burial cloth that enveloped Jesus Christ after his crucifixion. Its intricate details are meticulously captured in this photograph - every fold and crease telling a story of faith and devotion. The atmosphere surrounding this sacred occasion is palpable through Pia Secondo's lens. Pilgrims can be seen gathered around The Sacra Sindone with awe-struck expressions on their faces, their eyes filled with reverence and wonder. It is evident that this event held great spiritual importance for those present. Alinari has masterfully preserved this historical moment through its exceptional printing techniques. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the image, enhancing its ethereal quality. As we gaze upon it today, over a century later, we are reminded of our connection to generations past who have found solace and inspiration in their faith. Pia Secondo's photograph serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a testament to religious devotion throughout history. It allows us to reflect on our own beliefs while paying homage to those who came before us seeking solace within these sacred relics.
