EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate details of the statue of Cangrande I della Scala, a prominent figure in Verona's history. Created by the Master of Sant'Anastasia, this masterpiece can be found within the walls of Museo di Castelvecchio in Verona. The photograph, taken around 1930, beautifully showcases the artistry and craftsmanship that went into creating this Gothic marvel. The statue depicts Cangrande I della Scala adorned in his armor and military equipment, reflecting his role as a powerful leader during the Middle Ages. Every element is meticulously captured - from the finely crafted sword held firmly in his hand to the intricately designed helmet atop his head. The attention to detail extends even further with every fold and crease on his clothing being visible. Mounted on horseback, Cangrande exudes strength and authority as he gazes forward with determination. This portrayal not only highlights his military prowess but also signifies his Christian faith through subtle religious symbols incorporated into his headdress. The artist behind this remarkable sculpture remains anonymous but is known as the Master of Santa Anastasia. Their talent shines through in their ability to capture both physical likeness and inner character within their work. As we admire this photograph today, we are transported back to a time when knights roamed Europe during the first millennium A. D. , leaving an indelible mark on history. Alinari Fratelli has skillfully preserved this moment for us to appreciate centuries later – a testament to their commitment to preserving cultural heritage through photography.
