EDITORS COMMENTS
This 250-word caption delves into the intricate details of a print titled "Angel of the Annunciation, detail of the decoration of the portal of the Cathedral of Altamura". The photograph captures an exquisite piece of art that dates back to the Late Gothic period in Europe during the first and second millennium A. D. The artwork itself is believed to have been created around 1534 by Maestro Antonio di Andria. It showcases a mesmerizing representation known as Angel of the Annunciation, which forms part of the decorative elements adorning the portal at Altamura Cathedral. This particular detail highlights a profound connection between religious symbolism and artistic expression prevalent during this era. Within this composition, various elements come together harmoniously. The figure depicted is an angel, symbolizing divine intervention and carrying significant spiritual connotations. Adjacent to it stands Madonna and Child, representing life and representations associated with Virgin Mary's role in Christianity. Nature also plays a vital role in this artwork's symbolism. A brier or vegetal element can be observed within its composition, signifying growth amidst adversity or even protection against evil forces. Additionally, vegetation surrounds these figures like a crest or emblem further emphasizing their significance. As we delve deeper into historical context, we discover that this masterpiece belongs to both Late Gothic and Gothic periods within European art history. Its creation falls within XIV-XV secc. , showcasing remarkable craftsmanship from centuries past. Captured through Anderson's lens around 1931 (ca. ), this print from Alinari allows us to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also provides insight into cultural heritage preserved throughout time.
