EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "View in Spalatro, Showing the Campanile and the Peristyle of the Palace of Diocletian, 1890" takes us on a journey back in time to ancient Split, Croatia. The image showcases the remarkable architecture that has withstood centuries of history. At its center stands the Cathedral of Saint Domnius, originally built as Emperor Diocletian's mausoleum in the 4th century. Its Romanesque Bell Tower was added around 1100 AD, creating a stunning juxtaposition between different architectural styles. This fusion perfectly represents the layers of history found within this city. Surrounding the cathedral is Diocletian's Palace, an imposing structure from antiquity that served as both a residence for the emperor and a military fortress. Its grandeur is evident through its intricate pillars and columns showcased in this photograph. The scene captures everyday life in Split during the late 19th century. Pedestrians can be seen strolling along what was once an ancient plaza filled with bustling activity. The presence of men and women adds a human touch to this historical moment frozen in time. This print originates from Edmund Ollier's book "Cassells Illustrated Universal History" published in London, Paris, and Melbourne in 1890. It serves as a testament to how art can transport us across eras and continents while preserving our shared heritage.
