EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Castle of the Popes in Avignon, France, taken in 1890. The medieval gothic fortress and palace, known as Palais des Papes, served as the papal residence and seat of Western Christianity during the 14th century. Constructed by Pierre Poisson under Pope Benedict XII's instruction, this architectural marvel was further expanded by successive popes. The image captures the grandeur of this historic landmark against a backdrop of city life. The intricate details of its exterior facade are beautifully highlighted in monochrome tones. A group of background people adds a sense of scale to emphasize the castle's immense size. This photograph is sourced from "Cassells Illustrated Universal History" an esteemed publication by Edmund Ollier that provides valuable insights into various historical periods. It serves as a visual testament to both the artistic beauty and cultural significance of Avignon's Castle of the Popes. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured by an unknown creator over a century ago, we are transported back to a time when this fortress stood as a symbol of power and influence within Western Christianity. Its enduring presence continues to fascinate visitors today, reminding us of our rich medieval heritage.
