EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 20th century, offering a mesmerizing view of The Cathedral of Milan. Standing tall among its myriad spires, this architectural marvel is a testament to Italy's rich history and religious heritage. Built over six centuries, starting in 1387 under the guidance of Simone da Orsenigo, Milan Cathedral exudes grandeur and intricate detail from every angle. Its Gothic design showcases the mastery of craftsmanship that went into creating such an awe-inspiring structure. The photograph invites us to appreciate the cathedral's impressive facade, adorned with decorative elements that speak volumes about Christian artistry. As we gaze upon this vintage image captured by an unknown creator, we can almost feel ourselves transported to Lombardy, Italy. The image was meant to be viewed on a Sun Sculpture stereoscope made by Underwood & Underwood—a device popular at the time for immersing oneself in three-dimensional scenes. This particular print was produced by The Rose Stereograph Company based in Melbourne, Sydney, Wellington & London around 1909. As we explore this historic treasure through cinematography-like lensing techniques employed here, it becomes clear why Milan Cathedral remains one of Italy's most iconic tourist attractions even today. Its towering spires reach towards the heavens while its architectural features continue to inspire visitors from all corners of the globe who seek beauty and spirituality within its walls.
