The sunlit entrance to the Sala delle scienze e delle arti (Hall of sciences and arts) with the bust of Teresa Gamba (Lord Byron’s lover) in background. The vista is framed by a rhythmic repetition of gleaming wooden doorways and archways, housing shelves of antique tomes.
Reinhard Görner records cultural and industrial heritage through his series of photographs depicting contemporary and historical architecture, landscapes, parks, and plants. Best known for his photographs of libraries and reading rooms from around the world—in works such as George Peabody Library II, Baltimore (2017) and Riggs Library I, Washington DC (2017)—Görner captures the atmosphere of absolute silence and concentration the spaces embody while also revealing their almost cathedral-like sense of grandeur. Görner’s images have a vivid sense of depth and dimension that convey an impression of intimacy, as in Isaac Newton, Cambridge (2017), or monumentality via his precise and skilful use of framing and perspective.
The Biblioteca Classense is the public library of Ravenna, Italy. The library has a large collection of editions of the works related to Dante Alighieri. In 1803, with the Napoleonic suppression of monasteries and religious institutions, a library was created to harbor the confiscated books. They were housed in the Library of the Camaldolese Monastery, which had been founded in the 17th century by the Abbott Pietro Canneti in the Abbey of Classe. The collection includes manuscript codices, incunabula, prints, musical works, and numerous artworks and books. Added to the collection included the library of the architect Camillo Morigia (1743-1795) and the art critic Corrado Ricci (1858-1934).
