EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to 18th century Italy, specifically Bologna's magnificent Piazza Maggiore or Piazza Grande. The engraving by Pio Panfili beautifully captures the essence of this historical square. As we gaze upon the image, our eyes are drawn to the grandeur of Basilica di San Petronio on the right, its majestic dome reaching towards the sky. On the left stands Palazzo del Podesta, a symbol of power and authority during that era. In the center is Palazzo dei Banchi, showcasing exquisite architectural details. The bustling city life unfolds before our eyes as people can be seen strolling through this vibrant square. The enchanting atmosphere is further enhanced by the charming buildings surrounding it and their facades adorned with intricate designs. The artist skillfully employs diminishing perspective to create depth within this horizontal composition. This technique allows us to fully appreciate every element present in this remarkable cityscape. Stepping into this engraving feels like stepping into history itself – a moment frozen in time where art meets reality. It serves as a testament to both Bologna's rich history and its enduring architectural beauty. This print from Universal Images Group (UIG) offers an opportunity for us to immerse ourselves in Italian culture and marvel at the masterful craftsmanship that has stood strong throughout centuries.
