EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph presents a breathtaking view of Milan Cathedral, also known as Duomo di Milano, as seen from the Italian Lakes region around the turn of the 20th century. The image, part of the Boswell Collection, showcases the iconic cathedral's front facade with its intricately designed many-spired roofline and the distinctive lantern at its pinnacle. The Milan Cathedral, a masterpiece of Gothic architecture, is one of Italy's most famous landmarks and a symbol of the city's rich cultural heritage. Built between 1386 and 1410, the cathedral is an architectural marvel, adorned with over 3,400 statues and 700 figures, making it the largest marble sculpture in the world. The intricate details of the facade, including gargoyles, grotesques, and various religious figures, are on full display in this photograph. The image also captures the stunning contrast between the ornate architecture of the cathedral and the serene, tranquil waters of the Italian Lakes in the background. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to the early 1900s when travelers would capture moments of their journeys through lantern slides. The Boswell Collection, a treasure trove of historical images, provides us with a unique perspective of the world as it once was, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and wonder of the past while also marveling at the enduring allure of Milan Cathedral.
