EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent view of the façade and bell tower of the Church of S. Petronio in Bologna, Italy. The image captures the essence of Gothic architecture, transporting us back to the Middle Ages in Europe. The photograph was taken at the beginning of the 20th century, allowing us a glimpse into this timeless masterpiece that has stood tall for centuries. The Church of S. Petronio is located in Piazza Maggiore, one of Bologna's most iconic squares. Every detail is meticulously captured by Antonio di Vincenzo (ca. 1350-ca. 1402), an artist who skillfully portrays not only the architectural elements but also various sections and decorations present on this remarkable structure. As we gaze upon this artwork, our eyes are drawn to the intricate pilaster strips adorning its façade and leading up to its towering bell tower. This Christian religious structure stands as a testament to faith and devotion throughout history. The composition beautifully captures a street scene surrounding the church, giving us a sense of urban life during that time period. We can almost imagine ourselves walking through those very streets and witnessing firsthand how this grand church fits seamlessly into its surroundings. Alinari Fratelli masterfully presents this breathtaking view with utmost precision and attention to detail, making it feel like we are transported back in time to witness medieval Europe come alive before our eyes. This print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a historical document—a window into another era—inviting us to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its cultural significance as part of Bologna's rich heritage.
