EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of "St. Mark the Evangelist" a glazed earthenware tondo created by the renowned Della Robbia School. Located in the Cappella Tolosa of the church of Sant'Anna dei Lombardi in Naples, Italy, this masterpiece is a testament to the High Relief Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods. The photograph, taken around 1920-1930, beautifully captures every intricate detail of this remarkable piece. The tondo depicts St. Mark as an allegorical representation, symbolizing his role as one of Christ's apostles and an evangelist. With its abstract concept and symbolic imagery, it evokes a sense of reverence and spirituality. St. Mark is portrayed as a male figure holding a book—a powerful representation that signifies his authorship of one of the four Gospels in the New Testament Bible. The lion depicted at his feet further emphasizes his connection to this animal often associated with him in Christian iconography. As we delve into European history through art, this tondo transports us back to the fifteenth century when it was crafted by artists from the Della Robbia school—an influential group known for their mastery over glazed terracotta sculptures. Through Alinari's lens, we are able to appreciate not only St. Mark's significance within Christian religion but also marvel at how artistic techniques evolved during different historical periods such as Renaissance and Baroque. This print serves as both a visual delight and an educational tool for those interested in exploring Europe's rich cultural heritage spanning across centuries—the perfect addition to any art enthusiast or historian's collection.
