EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Byzantine reliefs adorning the gallery parapet of St. Mark's Basilica in Venice. The intricate details and masterful craftsmanship of these reliefs transport us back to the first and second millennium A. D. , a testament to the enduring legacy of Byzantine art. The photograph, taken between 1920-1930, captures the timeless beauty of this iconic artwork. Each relief tells its own story, depicting various symbols, allegories, and abstract concepts that were significant during that era. The cross stands prominently as a powerful religious symbol, representing faith and salvation. Intriguingly, instruments are also depicted in these reliefs, perhaps signifying harmony or divine intervention within the spiritual realm. This amalgamation of different elements creates a rich tapestry of meaning for viewers to explore. Vegetal elements and compositions add another layer of symbolism to these reliefs. From delicate foliage to thorny briers reminiscent of life's challenges, they represent growth, resilience, and even protection against adversity. Alinari Fratelli has skillfully captured this extraordinary piece through their lens. Their photographic expertise allows us to appreciate every minute detail with clarity and precision while preserving its historical significance. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Alinari Fratelli's collection, we are transported into an enchanting world where art intertwines with spirituality. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, Byzantine art continues to captivate our imagination and inspire awe in all who have the privilege to behold it at St. Mark's Basilica in Venice
