EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable painted plate titled "Lot hosting angels" found in the Museo Civico Filangieri, Palazzo Cuomo, Naples. The plate itself is an exquisite example of Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods, representing Europe's rich artistic heritage from the First and Second Millennium A. D. The photograph was taken between 1920 and 1930, capturing the intricate details and vibrant colors of this XVI-century artwork. Its subject matter revolves around Lot, one of the patriarchs mentioned in the Bible's Old Testament. In this scene, Lot is depicted as he graciously welcomes angels into his home. As we delve deeper into this masterpiece, our eyes are drawn to various elements that add depth to the composition. A curious cat lurks nearby while angelic figures surround Lot with their divine presence. This imagery intertwines biblical storytelling with mythical Egyptian influences through vegetal elements scattered throughout. The plate serves not only as a decorative piece but also as an important historical artifact reflecting European artistry during its renaissance period. It exemplifies how furniture and furnishings were crafted for civic spaces during that era. Alinari Fratelli skillfully captured this extraordinary artwork through their lens, preserving it for future generations to admire. Their photographic expertise allows us to appreciate every brushstroke and detail on this magnificent plate. This print invites us to explore history through art—a visual journey back in time where religious narratives merge with cultural influences from across Europe. It reminds us of humanity's enduring fascination with mythology, spirituality, and creativity expressed through various mediums like painting or pottery.
