EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a ceramic carafe adorned with intricate scenes from Ovid's Metamorphoses. Created in the renowned workshop Fontana in Urbino, Italy during the 16th century, this masterpiece is now housed in the Museo Nazionale del Bargello in Florence. The carafe itself is a testament to the artistic brilliance of the Italian Renaissance. Its delicate craftsmanship and attention to detail transport us back to ancient Rome, where Ovid's epic poetry unfolded. Each scene depicted on its surface tells a different tale of transformation and mythical wonder. As we gaze upon this work of art, we are reminded of the rich cultural heritage that has shaped our world. The Roman Empire comes alive through these vibrant illustrations, inviting us to explore its history and delve into its timeless stories. Luisa Ricciarini expertly captures every nuance of this ceramic jug through her lens, preserving it for generations to come. Her skillful photography allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of this object but also its historical significance. In this image, art merges with literature as Ovid's words spring forth from clay. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, his tales continue to inspire and captivate audiences around the globe.
