EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us on a journey to the eerie depths of the Chamber in Cappuccini catacombs, located in Palermo, Sicily. The chamber is adorned with religious symbols and crosses, creating a hauntingly beautiful atmosphere. The photograph was taken around 1909 by an unknown creator. The catacombs hold great historical significance as they house approximately 8000 corpses and 1252 mummies. This particular chamber showcases earth from Palestine and Rome, adding to its spiritual aura. To fully appreciate this image, it is recommended to view it through a Sun Sculpture stereoscope made by Underwood & Underwood. As we gaze upon this vintage photograph, we are transported back in time to witness the macabre beauty of these underground burial grounds. It serves as a reminder of the deep-rooted Christian traditions that have shaped Sicilian culture for centuries. The Rose Stereograph Company has expertly captured the essence of this location with their cinematographic approach. Its decorative elements and intricate details make it both intriguing and spooky at the same time.
