EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Sibyl from Giovanni Pisano's Pulpit in the Church of Saint Andrew in Pistoia. The image, captured around 1890, transports us back to the Gothic era of the Middle Ages in Europe. The Sibyl, a mythical figure from ancient times, is depicted with grace and poise. Her delicate features are accentuated by her flowing veil and intricate headdress. Dressed in an elaborate costume that reflects both civilian and military influences, she exudes an air of mystery and power. In this high relief sculpture, we see the Sibyl holding a musical instrument, perhaps symbolizing her role as a prophetess who communicated with divine forces through music. Her gesture suggests deep contemplation or even divination as she channels messages from another realm. Standing beside her is an angelic figure, adding to the ethereal atmosphere surrounding this ancient character. The attention to detail in both figures' clothing highlights their importance within religious narratives. Giovanni Pisano's masterful craftsmanship shines through every line and curve of this bas-relief artwork created between 1297-1301 AD. It serves as a testament to his skill as one of Italy's most renowned sculptors during this period. This photograph not only captures the beauty and intricacy of Pisano's work but also provides us with a glimpse into European history during the first and second millenniums AD. It reminds us of our rich cultural heritage rooted in Greco-Roman mythology intertwined with biblical tales from the Old Testament. Brogi's lens has immortalized this remarkable piece for generations to come – allowing us to appreciate its artistic brilliance while contemplating its historical significance.
