EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the intricate beauty of the "Portal and surmounting pointed shrines" created by Giacomo da Campione and his assistants. Located in the northern sacristy of Milan Cathedral, these masterpieces showcase the remarkable talent of the Maestri Campionesi during the Late Gothic period. The image transports us back to a time when Europe was immersed in the Middle Ages, with its rich history and cultural heritage. The relief work on display here is a testament to human creativity and craftsmanship that has stood strong for centuries. As we gaze upon this print, our eyes are drawn to every minute detail meticulously carved into stone. The pointed arches rise majestically above us, creating an aura of grandeur and reverence. Each shrine seems to tell a story from biblical times, reminding us of Jesus Christ's presence in our lives. Amidst this architectural marvel, we notice a person standing nearby, perhaps admiring or contemplating the profound significance of these sacred structures. Surrounding them is lush vegetation that adds a touch of natural serenity to this man-made wonder. Dating back to around 1389 AD, these artworks have witnessed countless generations pass through their doors. They have seen wars fought and empires rise and fall but remain steadfast as silent witnesses to history unfolding before them. This photograph captured by Brogi between 1875-1910 allows us to appreciate not only Giacomo da Campione's artistic genius but also serves as a reminder that art transcends time itself. It invites us into an enchanting world where past meets present—a visual feast for those who seek inspiration from our collective human legacy.
