EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, captured by the renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1925, showcases the breathtaking beauty of Villa d'Este in Tivoli, Lazio, Italy. Dating back to the 16th century, this architectural masterpiece was designed by Pirro Ligorio, with the landscaping and creation of its famous fountains completed in collaboration with Cardinal Ippolito II d'Este. The image transports us back in time, with its vibrant hand-coloured tones and intricate details. The villa's grand arches, adorned with intricate carvings, stand proud against the backdrop of the Italian countryside. The meticulously designed gardens and grounds, filled with a variety of flora, add to the serene and picturesque setting. At the heart of the villa lies a stunning drinking fountain, nestled within a beautifully decorated niche. The fountain, a testament to the Renaissance period's artistic prowess, is surrounded by ornate lanterns, adding an ethereal glow to the scene. The lanterns, hand-tinted in the 1920s and 1930s, further enhance the image's timeless appeal. This photograph is a treasure from the past, offering a glimpse into the rich history and heritage of Italy during the 16th and 20th centuries. It is a reminder of the enduring beauty and artistry that can be found in the world's most historic sites and buildings.
