EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the exquisite beauty of "The Protiro of the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore" in Bergamo, Italy. The protiro, a columned structure at the entrance of the church, showcases intricate building elements and decorative sections that are characteristic of Late Gothic architecture. Dating back to the 14th century, this remarkable artwork was created by Giovanni da Campione, an esteemed artist from that era. His mastery is evident in every detail of this prothyrum - from the delicate moulding to the captivating low relief sculptures adorning its surface. Each statuette tells a story from Europe's Middle Ages, transporting viewers back in time to a period when craftsmanship flourished. Alinari's photograph was taken between 1915-1920, capturing not only the timeless beauty of this architectural masterpiece but also preserving it for future generations. The monochromatic tones enhance its grandeur while highlighting every intricate feature with precision. As we gaze upon this print today, we are reminded of how art transcends time and connects us to our rich cultural heritage. It serves as a testament to human creativity and ingenuity throughout history. This image invites us to appreciate both the artistic brilliance behind such creations and their significance within European history during both first and second millennium A. D. Alinari Fratelli has masterfully captured this extraordinary piece through their lens, allowing us to admire its splendor even if we cannot experience it firsthand. Let us cherish these glimpses into our past as they inspire awe and appreciation for centuries-old works like "The Protiro. "
