EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Ambo with Cosmati's decoration, located in the Church of Santa Maria in Aracoeli, Rome. The photograph, taken around 1890, allows us to marvel at this remarkable piece of artwork from the XIII century. The Ambo is a true testament to the skill and craftsmanship of the renowned Cosmati School. Its intricate mosaic ornamentation depicts an eagle, symbolizing strength and power. This animal representation holds great allegorical significance within European culture during the Middle Ages. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness the grandeur of medieval Europe. The Ambo stands as a proud relic from both the first and second millenniums A. D. , representing centuries of history and cultural heritage. The architectural elements surrounding this masterpiece further enhance its beauty. The column on which it rests exudes elegance while providing a sturdy foundation for such delicate work. Every detail has been meticulously crafted by skilled hands to create a harmonious blend between sculpture and decoration. The crest-like emblem atop the Ambo adds an air of nobility to its presence. It serves as a visual brand that distinguishes it from other works within Europe's vast collection of coat-of-arms or heraldic ornaments. Anderson's photography captures not only the physicality but also evokes emotions associated with this magnificent piece. Through his lens, we can appreciate how art transcends time and connects us with our past.
