Piazza della Cattedrale in the Early 1900s

Historical photo of Piazza della Cattedrale in Trieste in the early twentieth century: the facade of the Cattedrale di San Giusto with the large rose window dominates the scene next to the massive bell tower. The pavement of the square is marked by the shadows of the large trees and in the foreground a figure in uniform appears. An image that conveys the tranquility of Trieste back then between religious architecture and historic building.
