Francesca da Rimini, Relics of the Heroines Family - A Glimpse into Italian History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph, captured by an English photographer in the 20th century, takes us on a journey to Italy's rich past. The image showcases a print titled "Francesca da Rimini, Relics of the Heroines Family" which was originally published in The Illustrated London News on March 29th, 1902. The photo transports us to Ravenna, Italy - birthplace and host to this remarkable tale. It is here that we catch our first glimpse of Francesca da Rimini and her family's relics. These remnants serve as a poignant reminder of their heroic lineage. The sepulchral figure depicted evokes emotions as it recalls the tragic love story between Francesca and Paolo Malatesta from Dante Alighieri's renowned work, "Divine Comedy". Their ill-fated romance has been immortalized by poets such as Boccaccio throughout Europe. In this photograph, we witness not only the remains but also architectural elements reminiscent of their ancestral house in Rimini. Portraits adorning the walls further emphasize their noble heritage. As we delve deeper into history through this mesmerizing image, we discover that Francesca was married off to Ostasio I da Polenta for political reasons. However, her heart belonged to Paolo Malatesta. Their forbidden love ultimately led them both to tragedy at Porto Fuori. This photograph
