EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art from the Middle Ages, specifically the Barbarian art of Lombardy. The image captures a detailed low relief carving of Christ, which is part of the altar commissioned by Duke Rachis. Created between 737 and 744, this sculpture exemplifies Lombard art at its finest. Located in Cividale del Friuli, Italy, this masterpiece can be found in the Chretien Museum within the treasure of the cathedral. It is an exquisite representation of Christian iconography during that period. The artist behind this extraordinary work is Luisa Ricciarini, an Italian talent whose skillful craftsmanship brings life to biblical characters through her carvings. This particular portrayal of Jesus Christ exudes both power and serenity as he wears an aureole around his head. The intricacy and attention to detail evident in every stroke make it clear why this artwork has stood the test of time. As we gaze upon it today, we are transported back to a significant era in history when religion played a central role in society. Ricciarini's photograph allows us to appreciate not only her own artistic abilities but also serves as a testament to the enduring legacy left by medieval artists who dedicated their lives to creating masterpieces like this one.
