EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of Luca Della Robbia's "Musical angels, relief from the Cantoria". Created between 1432 and 1438, this marble masterpiece can be found in the Museo dell Opera del Duomo in Florence, Italy. The relief panel depicts a scene taken from the end of Psalm 150, where angelic figures joyfully sing and play musical instruments. The intricate details of each figure are brought to life through Della Robbia's masterful craftsmanship. Cherubs and putti grace the composition with their presence, adding an ethereal quality to the artwork. Originally installed above the North Sacristy Doors in the cathedral, this singing gallery served as a visual celebration of music within religious spaces. The frieze captures not only the talent and skill of these celestial beings but also their deep connection to spirituality. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to Renaissance Italy—a time when art flourished under patronage and religion played a central role in society. The delicate expressions on each angel's face convey both serenity and passion for their harmonious melodies. Luca Della Robbia's "Musical angels" is a testament to his genius as well as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with divine inspiration. This print allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of this historical treasure while immersing ourselves in its heavenly ambiance.
