EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of artistry, the Bronze altar frontal depicting stories from the life of St. Sebastian, created by the talented Bernardo Falcone. Housed in the magnificent Church of Santa Maria di Nazareth in Venice, this masterpiece is a testament to both Baroque and Renaissance-Baroque styles. The image transports us back to a time when Europe was flourishing during the first and second millennium A. D. The photograph itself was captured between 1920-1930, while Falcone's artwork dates back to around 1660-1670. Staring at this mesmerizing scene, we are drawn into an enchanting narrative that unfolds before our eyes. The focal point is undoubtedly St. Sebastian himself; his masculine figure stands tall amidst a backdrop filled with religious symbolism and intricate details. As one of Christianity's revered saints, he embodies strength and devotion. Accompanying him are various other figures representing different aspects of Christian faith – both male and female characters who contribute to the overall storytelling within this stunning altar frontal. The craftsmanship displayed here is truly awe-inspiring; every stroke seems purposeful and deliberate as if each detail has been meticulously planned out by Falcone himself. It serves as a reminder of how art can transcend time, allowing future generations like us to appreciate its beauty centuries later. Alinari Fratelli skillfully captures this momentous artwork through their lens, preserving it for posterity. This print not only allows us to admire Bernardo Falcone's talent but also grants us access to experience firsthand the grandeur and spirituality found within the walls of Venice's Church of Santa Maria di Nazareth
