EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "BBA-F-001113-0000" offers a mesmerizing view of the Old Fortress in Livorno. Taken around 1910, it transports us back to the early 16th century when this magnificent structure was built by Giuliano Giamberti, famously known as Giuliano da Sangallo. The Old Fortress stands tall and proud against the backdrop of a serene seascape. Its imposing presence showcases the remarkable architecture and fortification techniques employed during that era. The photograph beautifully captures intricate details such as window frames, building elements, decorations, and sections – testaments to the craftsmanship of its time. Livorno's Old Fortress served as both a military stronghold and defensive structure. It acted as a fortified tower guarding against potential threats from land or sea. This strategic location allowed for easy surveillance of incoming ships while providing protection to the city's inhabitants. Giuliano da Sangallo completed this masterpiece between 1521 and 1534, leaving behind an enduring symbol of Livorno's rich history. The fortress not only represents architectural brilliance but also serves as a reminder of Livorno's maritime heritage. Luigi Betti skillfully captured this iconic landmark through his lens, preserving its grandeur for generations to come. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back in time – witnessing Livorno's past unfold before our eyes. Let us immerse ourselves in awe-inspiring landscapes like these that remind us of our cultural heritage and inspire future generations to appreciate the beauty found within historical treasures like Livorno's Old Fortress.
