EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable panel by the renowned artist Jacopo della Quercia. The panel, titled "King David" was created as part of the ciborium for the Baptismal Font of Siena Baptistry in Italy during the early Renaissance period. The image depicts King David, one of the iconic figures from biblical history. Dressed in an elaborate costume that reflects the fashion and clothing styles of ancient times, he exudes power and authority. His mantle cloak adds a touch of regality to his appearance, emphasizing his role as a king. Jacopo della Quercia's mastery is evident in every detail captured by this photograph. The intricate bas-relief work brings depth and dimension to King David's figure, showcasing the artist's skillful craftsmanship. Through delicate carving techniques, Della Quercia has immortalized this historical figure with great reverence. Dating back to around 1409-1419 AD, this artwork represents not only an important piece within European art history but also serves as a testament to the enduring influence of religious narratives on artistic expression during this time period. The photograph itself was taken between 1920-1930 AD by Alinari Fratelli, capturing both the beauty and intricacy of Jacopo della Quercia's masterpiece. With its timeless appeal and historical significance, this print offers viewers a glimpse into Europe's rich artistic heritage while honoring one of Italy's most celebrated artists.
