EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Lugano: view of Mount San Salvatore near Castagnola" transports us back in time to the late 19th century. Taken between 1875 and 1890 by Brogi, a renowned photographer from Alinari, this image captures the essence of Lugano, Switzerland. The photograph showcases an impressive architectural marvel with its prominent arches and intricate building elements. The structure exudes elegance and grandeur, adorned with exquisite decorations and sections that speak volumes about the craftsmanship of that era. The roof stands tall against the backdrop of Mount San Salvatore, creating a harmonious blend between man-made beauty and natural splendor. A loggia extends gracefully from one side of the building, providing a perfect vantage point for admiring the breathtaking landscape surrounding Lugano. A female figure is captured within this loggia, adding a touch of life to the scene. Her clothing reflects the fashion trends prevalent during those times - a glimpse into history through attire. The landscape itself is awe-inspiring; lakes stretch out as far as the eye can see while mountains majestically frame them in their embrace. Verdant plants and vegetation add vibrancy to this picturesque setting, enhancing its allure even further. Brogi's masterful composition allows us to immerse ourselves in this timeless moment frozen in black-and-white hues. It evokes feelings of nostalgia for an era long gone yet still preserved through artistry like his photography. This print serves as both a historical document capturing Lugano's architectural heritage and an invitation to appreciate nature's wonders at their finest. Its sheer beauty transcends time boundaries, reminding us why Lugano has always been cherished by locals and visitors alike.
