EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent frame depicting the Ascension of the Virgin Mary, created in Trapani during the first half of the 17th century. Crafted with exquisite skill and attention to detail by an unknown Italian artist from that era, this gilt-copper, enamel, and coral masterpiece measures 36x34 cm. The frame's octagonal shape adds a touch of uniqueness to its already ornate design, which is characteristic of the Baroque style prevalent during that time. Its vibrant red hues evoke a sense of passion and devotion associated with Catholicism. This religious artwork holds great significance within ecclesiastical circles as it depicts one of Christianity's most revered events - the ascension of the Virgin Mary into heaven. The scene portrays her glorious departure from Earth surrounded by heavenly light and angelic figures. Adorned with intricate metalwork and delicate gold accents, this ceremonial piece exudes elegance and grandeur. It serves as a testament to both artistic mastery and religious devotion prevalent in Sicilian culture during this period. Now part of a private collection, this photograph allows us to appreciate every intricate detail captured by eChristies Images. As we gaze upon it, we are transported back in time to witness not only an extraordinary work of art but also experience the profound spiritual connection between faith and creativity.
