EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the magnificent Basilica of S. Pietro in Rome. The focus of the image is on the exquisite wooden stalls of the choir, showcasing a harmonious blend of Baroque and Renaissance styles. Dating back to around 1450, these intricately crafted furnishings for sacred spaces are a testament to the skilled artistry and craftsmanship of their time. Each stall displays an impressive level of detail, with delicate carvings depicting various architectural elements such as columns and capitals. The lush vegetation depicted in this artwork adds a touch of natural beauty to the scene. Acanthus leaves gracefully intertwine with other herbaceous plants, creating an enchanting atmosphere within this holy space. As we admire this photograph taken around 1890, we can't help but marvel at how it captures both the grandeur and historical significance of this iconic basilica. It serves as a reminder that architecture not only shapes our physical surroundings but also reflects our cultural heritage. Anderson's skillful composition allows us to appreciate every intricate detail while immersing ourselves in the rich history that surrounds these wooden stalls. This print is more than just an object; it represents centuries' worth of artistic expression and devotion. Whether you're an admirer of fine furniture or simply fascinated by European history, this image offers a glimpse into one corner of Rome's architectural splendor – where past meets present through Alinari's lens.
