I love the geometric perfection of this Italian Baroque Interior and that’s the reason I printed a copy for my personal use.
This image is hanging in my photography studio. It immediately calms me, every time I see it. It could be a bad day, even a horrible day, but the light and the geometric lines in this photograph have a magical effect on me. They capture my attention in this space without time and for some minutes I enter into the image.
The floor, made of 300-year-old luxury marble, is a masterpiece so unique it becomes hypnotic. The central circle, the marble rays that expand from it, the natural light used in an amazing way by the architect Filippo Juvarra… all contribute to grab the attention of the spectator.
Italian Baroque Interior
We’re in Turin, my native city, in the Palazzo Madama (Madama’s Palace) and this photograph was taken at the top of the Filippo Juvarra’s staircase.
The staircase of Palazzo Madama is a construction of pure light It’s an organism that lives and transforms itself according to the hours and weather conditions of the day. Three hundred years after its construction, this photograph offers an ambiance and immersion in the scenic architecture designed by Filippo Juvarra.
It conveys a feeling of majesty, but also of peace and light thanks to the large windows and the soft pastel colors.
The staircase-façade announces the passage from the Baroque grandeur to the intimacy and refined elegance of the Rococo.
Carved on the outside in Chianocco stone and shaped inside in stucco with soft pastel shades, this creation is a fundamental part of European Rococo. Here the architect searches for lightness and aspiration for a space on a human scale, even when the place takes on monumental attributes.
This photograph showcases a breathtaking view of the hall, adorned with intricate baroque marbles, and bathed in the soft, natural light streaming through opulent windows.
The inspiration for capturing this exquisite photograph was drawn from my fondness for historical architecture and its ageless beauty. The artistic message I wish to convey through this masterpiece is a blend of historical charm and the serene tranquility that these hallowed halls exude.
This unique photograph represents a moment frozen in time, evoking emotions of awe and reverence for the craftsmanship of an era gone by.
The photograph was taken in the early morning light, when the day is still fresh and the world is waking up. The light, cascading through the large windows, bounces off the marble, creating an ethereal glow that transforms the hall into an enchanted realm.
This wall art print is an investment that will enrich your life with a piece of Italian history. It would make an ideal acquisition for lovers of art and history, or anyone who appreciates the splendor of neoclassical architecture. It would add a touch of sophistication to any living room, study, or office, instantly elevating its ambiance.
Your guests will certainly notice the difference. The photograph would instantly command attention, sparking conversations and admiration. It represents not just a photograph but a statement of elegance, historical appreciation, and a celebration of beauty, making it an essential addition to any fine art collection.
The square format photograph
The square format of this photograph has two strong purposes. The first is an opportunity: pictures with a strong internal point of interest, like a circular shape, call for a square frame. This helps to give a strong balance to the entire photograph. It invites the eye of the spectator to enter inside the image.
The second is because the square format is one of the most flexible options for fine art photography, especially for home interiors. You can locate this photograph in several different rooms of your house and personally, I’ve chosen my photography studio.
I can imagine this photograph highlighted in a corporate office but also in an elegant dining room. The use of the square format adds flexibility to your possibilities.
This is the reason I strongly believe this fine art photograph is an investment for the future. It’s not only the amazing content created by the architectural masterpiece inside the image but the fact that you don’t need to limit your choices of where to expose this image.
This photograph is so flexible that wherever you’ll hang it—it transforms your ambiance adding elegance and emotional appeal.
