EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a remarkable piece of artistry and craftsmanship - the Washbasin, sculpted work of the Mantegazza. Housed within the Chapel of Mary Magdalene in the Church of the Certosa of Pavia, this lavabo is a testament to the High Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles that flourished in Europe during the first and second millenniums A. D. The date of this photograph is estimated to be between 1915 and 1920, capturing an exquisite artwork believed to have been created around 1480. The artists behind this masterpiece are Antonio Mantegazza and Cristoforo Mantegazza, whose talents brought forth an object that seamlessly blends functionality with artistic expression. Intricate details adorn every inch of this washbasin, showcasing elements such as acanthus leaves, herbaceous plants, flowers, briers, vases, shells - all meticulously carved into its surface. Its design exudes elegance and sophistication while reflecting influences from both Renaissance and Baroque periods. The Alinari brothers skillfully captured this extraordinary basin through their lens. Their photographic expertise allows viewers today to appreciate not only its physical beauty but also its historical significance as a symbol of artistic excellence from centuries past. As you gaze upon this print by Alinari Fratelli, let your imagination transport you back in time to witness firsthand the grandeur and opulence that once graced European churches. Marvel at how artistry transcends time as it continues to captivate hearts even after hundreds of years have passed since its creation.
