"The Bell Tower Strikes Midnight" holds a special sentiment for Wright, as he spent the previous night observing the ebb and flow of life in the streets. From early evening until midnight, he watched people come and go, each moment contributing to a lively tapestry of activity. As the night progressed, the streets grew emptier and quieter, evoking a sense of calm and reflection. This transition inspired him to capture the essence of that stillness in his artwork, infusing the piece with the emotions and stories of the night, ultimately creating a poignant tribute to the passage of time in the heart of Loreto.
