EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the timeless beauty of an adoring angel made of marble, created by the renowned artist Tullio Lombardo. The angel is situated in the Church of San Martino, a hidden gem nestled within the enchanting city of Venice. The sculpture exudes a sense of ethereal grace as it gazes heavenward with its delicate features and outstretched wings. Crafted during the Renaissance period in 1484, this masterpiece showcases Lombardo's exceptional talent for capturing both human emotion and divine spirituality. The Church of San Martino itself is a testament to Europe's rich history, standing proudly as a symbol of religious devotion spanning over two millennia. Its architectural style seamlessly blends elements from both Renaissance and Baroque periods, creating an atmosphere that transports visitors back in time. Alinari Fratelli expertly captured this momentous artwork through their lens in 1971. Their choice to present it in black and white adds depth and texture to the image, emphasizing every intricate detail carved into the marble surface. As we gaze upon this print today, we are reminded not only of Lombardo's artistic genius but also of our own connection to centuries past. This adoring angel serves as a bridge between worlds – a tangible representation of faith that has endured throughout generations. Whether one admires it for its historical significance or simply appreciates its aesthetic beauty, this photograph offers us an opportunity to reflect on our shared cultural heritage while marveling at the enduring power art holds over time.
