EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of the bronze candelabrum found within the magnificent St. Mark's Basilica in Venice. The intricate craftsmanship and artistic brilliance of this piece are truly awe-inspiring, representing various styles and periods such as High Renaissance, Renaissance-Baroque, and Renaissance. Dating back to the 16th century, this masterpiece was created by the talented artist Maffeo Olivieri. It beautifully captures an array of elements including a majestic lion, symbolizing strength and power; allegorical representations that convey abstract concepts; angelic figures exuding heavenly grace; and male nudes showcasing the beauty of the human body. The composition also incorporates vegetal elements, adding a touch of natural elegance to this extraordinary artwork. Its fusion of biblical references from the Old Testament further enhances its significance within European art history. Captured through Alinari Fratelli's lens during the early 20th century (around 1920-1930), this photograph preserves not only a visual record but also an emotional connection to an era long gone. It allows us to appreciate both the grandeur of St. Mark's Basilica and Olivieri's exceptional talent for sculpting bronze. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how art has evolved over centuries while still maintaining its profound impact on our understanding of culture and history. This remarkable print serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with artistic expression throughout Europe's first and second millennia.
