EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "PDC-F-000097-0000" transports us to the Church of the Santissima Annunziata in Florence. The image captures a mesmerizing detail of the large altarpiece featuring Pietro Perugino's masterpiece, the 'Assumption of the Virgin. ' Dating back to 1505-1507 approximately, this awe-inspiring artwork by Pietro Vannucci, also known as Perugino (c. 1445-1523), showcases his exceptional talent and mastery of Renaissance art. The altarpiece is a testament to Perugino's ability to create ethereal scenes that transport viewers into a realm beyond our own. The photograph itself was taken between 1880 and 1900 by Alinari, an esteemed photographer renowned for their ability to capture the essence and beauty of various artworks. Through their lens, we are granted a glimpse into this sacred space within the Basilica of SS. Annunziata. In this particular shot, our attention is drawn towards an angelic figure depicted in exquisite detail. With outstretched wings and serene countenance, it appears as though this heavenly being has just descended from above. Holding what seems to be a Bible from the New Testament delicately in its hands, it adds an element of divine symbolism to the composition. Alinari's skillful photography allows us to appreciate every brushstroke and intricate detail present in Perugino's work while preserving its original splendor for generations to come.
