EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning interior of Milan Cathedral in 1890. The construction of this magnificent cathedral began in the 14th century under the guidance of Archbishop Antonio da Saluzzo, with Italian architect Simone da Orsenigo leading the way. The intricate interior decoration continued for centuries, finally reaching its completion well into the 16th century. The image, sourced from "Cassells Illustrated Universal History", a book by Edmund Ollier published in London, Paris, and Melbourne in 1890, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and beauty of this historic architectural masterpiece. The photograph captures a moment frozen in time within one of Italy's most iconic religious structures. As we gaze upon this monochrome scene, our eyes are drawn to the impressive columns and pillars that line the vast space. Statues depicting biblical figures stand tall amidst their surroundings, adding an air of reverence to this sacred place. A lone man can be seen standing near one pillar, perhaps contemplating its historical significance or simply marveling at its splendor. This print transports us back to a different era - a time when craftsmanship and devotion were poured into every detail of such monumental structures. It serves as a reminder not only of Milan Cathedral's rich history but also of humanity's enduring desire to create something awe-inspiring that stands the test of time.
