EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the exquisite silver statue of S. Emidio, attributed to Pietro Vanni, located in the Sacresty of the Cathedral in Ascoli Piceno. The statue stands tall, emanating a sense of divine power and grace. Crafted during the Renaissance period, this masterpiece showcases both Renaissance and Baroque styles with its intricate details and ornate design. Its creation dates back to the late 15th century when artistic brilliance flourished across Europe. The photograph itself was taken between 1915-1920 by Alinari Fratelli, renowned for their exceptional documentation of art and culture. It beautifully preserves this timeless artwork while capturing every delicate feature with remarkable clarity. S. Emidio is depicted as a male saint dressed in religious attire that reflects his esteemed position within the Christian religion. His clothing exudes elegance, adorned with a tiara miter that symbolizes his authority as a bishop in Catholicism. In his hand rests a pastoral staff, an emblematic accessory representing his role as shepherd to his flock. This scene evokes a sense of tranquility and reverence as S. Emidio bestows blessings upon those who seek solace within these sacred walls. Ascoli Piceno's Cathedral serves as an ideal setting for such extraordinary craftsmanship; it is here that visitors can witness firsthand the fusion of Renaissance-Baroque styles from centuries past. Alinari's photograph not only captures this stunning work but also transports viewers through time, allowing them to appreciate Pietro Vanni's artistic genius while immersing themselves in European history spanning over two millennia.
