EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Balustrade on the river Po with the church of the Holy Mother and the Monte dei Cappuccini, Torino" takes us back to a bygone era in Turin, Italy. The image showcases an exquisite balustrade made of marble that gracefully lines the banks of the majestic River Po. Standing proudly behind it is the magnificent church of the Holy Mother, its neoclassical architecture adding a touch of grandeur to this picturesque scene. The artist, Ferdinando Bonsignore, captured this moment between 1940-1950 but depicted an artwork created during 1827-1831. His attention to detail allows us to appreciate not only the craftsmanship involved in constructing such a beautiful balustrade but also highlights his mastery as a photographer. As we gaze upon this tranquil setting, our eyes are drawn beyond the balustrade towards lush vegetation and towering trees that frame both sides of the riverbank. This harmonious blend of nature's beauty with man-made structures creates an enchanting landscape that transports us back in time. The composition invites us to contemplate both religious and architectural elements within one frame. The presence of a Christian church amidst such natural splendor serves as a reminder of humanity's quest for spiritual solace even amidst bustling city life. Pasta Fernando skillfully captures all these elements through his lens underlining their significance within European history from first millennium A. D until today. This photograph evokes nostalgia while simultaneously reminding us how timeless art can be—a testament to human creativity across centuries. In summary, Pasta Fernando's print offers viewers an opportunity to immerse themselves in Turin's rich cultural heritage—its stunning landscapes, architectural marvels like churches—and reflect on Europe's historical legacy spanning millennia.
