EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent marble tablet, believed to be a fountain ornament, created by the skilled craftsmen of 16th-century Florence. Currently housed in the Museo Nazionale del Bargello in Florence, this exquisite piece exemplifies the Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles that flourished during this period. The low relief bas-relief depicts a mesmerizing mythological scene, with its intricate details and masterful execution. The artist's identity remains unknown but is attributed to the Florentine School. The composition features both male and female figures, representing allegory and abstract concepts within society and politics. A striking element of this artwork is the inclusion of a dolphin alongside other cetaceans, mammals that symbolize harmony and gracefulness. These creatures add an ethereal touch to the overall design. The figures' hairstyles reflect contemporary fashion trends of the time while their nudity emphasizes physical rapport between them. This evokes a sense of intimacy within the scene depicted on the tablet. Dating back to approximately 1935 when this photograph was taken by Alinari Fratelli, it captures not only the beauty of this remarkable artwork but also provides us with insight into European art from both first and second millennia AD. As you admire this image captured by Alinari Fratelli (not associated with any commercial use), allow yourself to be transported back in time to experience firsthand one of Florence's most treasured artistic treasures at Museo Nazionale del Bargello.
