EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an old sundial that has been skillfully adapted by the renowned architect P. Portaluppi for the embellishment of a courtyard's walls. The image, captured in the 1930s, exudes a sense of timeless beauty as it transports us to an era where architectural details were meticulously crafted. The aged appearance of the sundial adds character to this outdoor scene, while sunlight gently illuminates its intricate design. From an elevated view on a balcony, we are treated to a mesmerizing vista that encompasses not only the sundial but also charming shutters and other architectural features. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, our imagination is sparked with thoughts of centuries past and the scientific wonders that have fascinated humanity throughout history. The presence of this celestial timekeeping device evokes concepts of astronomy and our place within the solar system. With its magical aura and attention to detail, this photograph captures both artistry and functionality in perfect harmony. It serves as a testament to Piero Portaluppi's talent as both an architect and decorator. Preserved through time in this publication from The Studio Volume 99, this print allows us to appreciate not only the object itself but also its historical significance. It invites us into a world where craftsmanship was paramount and architectural elements held profound meaning.
