EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate details of Jupiter, one of the planetary symbols depicted in a series of reliefs by Agostino di Duccio. Created around 1450, these reliefs can be found in the Chapel of the Planets at Tempio Malatestiano in Rimini, Italy.
In this particular relief, Jupiter is represented by an eagle, symbolizing power and strength. The bird of prey perched majestically on a corn stalk serves as a reminder of Jupiter's role as a god associated with abundance and fertility.
The craftsmanship and artistry displayed in this piece reflect the Renaissance era during which it was created. Agostino di Duccio's attention to detail and skillful execution bring to life not just Jupiter, but also other planetary symbols and signs of the zodiac that adorn the chapel walls.
As you gaze upon this photo print, you are transported back in time to an age when gods and goddesses were worshipped as divine beings. The celestial beauty captured here serves as a testament to humanity's fascination with the heavens above.
Let yourself be enchanted by this glimpse into history through the lens of Raffaello Bencini's camera. Explore each intricate detail and marvel at how art has preserved stories from centuries past for us to enjoy today.
