architecture
The stereoscopic image captures the Loggia of the Cologne City Hall through the lens of Ferrier Père-Fils et Soulier. The loggia, with its open arches, embodies the ancient Roman concept of public space, where justice was dispensed and civic life unfolded. These arches aren't merely structural; they are portals, echoing the triumphal arches of antiquity, symbols of power and order. Consider the arch as a recurring motif throughout history, from the sacred architecture of temples to the grand entrances of palaces. It represents passage, transition, and the threshold between worlds. This architectural gesture is more than stone and mortar, it is a memory trace, a powerful psychological symbol evoking the collective's yearning for order, stability, and connection to historical legacies. This longing speaks to our deepest cultural and psychological needs. We see how such forms persist, resurface, and are continually imbued with new meaning.
