EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable glazed earthenware tondo, also known as a plate or roundel. Created by the renowned artist Luca Della Robbia during the 15th century, this exquisite piece of art is believed to date back to the XV century AD. The photograph was taken between 1890 and 1900 by Brogi from Alinari. The tondo depicts an angelic figure alongside the iconic biblical scene of Madonna and Child. The artwork beautifully captures the life and representations of the Virgin Mary, symbolizing her importance in religious iconography. Surrounding the central figures are elements of nature, including apples, fruits, vegetation, leaves, and various vegetal compositions. A bundle or bunch of flowers adds a touch of elegance to this divine composition. The location where this masterpiece resides is none other than Messina's Ospedale of S. Maria della Scala church in Italy. This historical setting provides an ideal backdrop for such an extraordinary work of art. Through this photo print, viewers can appreciate both Della Robbia's artistic genius and Brogi's skillful photography capturing every intricate detail with precision. It serves as a testament to human creativity throughout centuries and offers us a glimpse into religious devotion during that era.
