EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a mesmerizing detail of the arch of the stairway in the Ducal Palace of Urbino. The corbel with its intricate decoration of plant festoons is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of Luciano Laurana, an esteemed artist from the Early Renaissance period. The delicate acanthus leaves and herbaceous plants gracefully intertwine, forming a vegetal composition that exudes elegance and sophistication. Each element is meticulously carved, showcasing Laurana's mastery in capturing nature's beauty within his artwork. Dating back to around 1472, this stunning piece epitomizes the artistic style prevalent during the Renaissance era. It seamlessly combines elements from both early Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles, creating a harmonious blend that represents Europe's rich cultural heritage. The photograph itself was taken between 1915-1920 by Alinari Fratelli, renowned for their exceptional skill in capturing fine art prints. Their expertise shines through as they flawlessly capture every intricate detail of Laurana's masterpiece. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the grandeur and opulence that once graced the halls of Urbino's Ducal Palace. It serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with artistry throughout history. Whether displayed in a museum or cherished within one's personal collection, this remarkable print offers us an opportunity to appreciate not only Luciano Laurana’s talent but also our collective artistic legacy spanning over two millennia.
