EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the main altar of Chiesa di Santa Corona in Vicenza, Italy. The grandeur of this masterpiece is evident as it features two tables adorned with intricate details and crowned by a magnificent marble tabernacle. Created in 1669 by Francesco Antonio Corbarelli, a talented Florentine artist, the ensemble boasts exquisite marble and precious stone inlays. In this particular detail captured by Ghigo Roli, we are drawn to the depiction of Habakkuk being carried by an angel as he brings food to Daniel in the lions' den. This biblical scene adds a touch of spirituality to the already awe-inspiring altar. The craftsmanship displayed here is truly remarkable, showcasing the skill and artistry prevalent during the seventeenth century. Every element, from the tawny lion sculptures to delicate bird motifs carved into marble blocks, contributes to its overall beauty. As we admire this piece of Italian architecture and religious artistry, we can't help but be transported back in time. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and evokes a sense of reverence for those who created such masterpieces centuries ago. This print captures not only an extraordinary work of art but also invites us to appreciate the profound impact that religious beliefs had on artistic expression during this period.
