EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing detail of the famous fresco "Road to Calvary" by Giacomo Jaquerio. The artwork, located in the Abbey Church of Sant Antonio di Ranverso in Piedmont, Italy, is a true testament to the artist's skill and mastery. In this particular section of the fresco, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in history - the road leading to Calvary. The composition is rich with symbolism and emotion as it depicts various elements integral to the crucifixion story. At first glance, our eyes are drawn towards a shield-bearing Roman centurion standing tall on a hilltop overlooking the scene. His presence signifies both authority and power amidst chaos. Just below him stands an imposing trumpeter blowing his horn, adding an eerie sense of foreboding. Further down the road, we see two figures engaged in battle; one brandishing a lance while another wields a spear. Their clash represents not only physical conflict but also serves as metaphorical imagery for spiritual struggles. Amidst this turmoil lies Jesus Christ carrying his cross towards Golgotha - known as Calvary - where he would ultimately be crucified. A thief can be seen nearby, perhaps representing humanity's capacity for redemption even at its darkest hour. The attention to detail and vibrant colors bring this ancient narrative vividly to life once more through Jaquerio's brushstrokes. This remarkable print allows us to appreciate every intricate aspect of
