EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of the "Allegory of Sleep" a marble sculpture from the seventeenth century. Located in the Galleria Spada in Rome, this unknown masterpiece is a testament to both artistic skill and timeless beauty. The high relief artwork depicts an allegorical representation of sleep, showcasing its abstract concept and symbolic significance. A putto figure, resembling a child-like angel, takes center stage as it peacefully rests within a cradle. The nude human body is delicately sculpted, emphasizing both physiological and psychological aspects associated with sleep. As one gazes upon this remarkable piece, they are transported into a world where literature and fiction intertwine with reality. The figure's serene expression invites contemplation on the functions and treatments for the body during restful slumber. The date of this photograph falls between 1920-1930; however, the original artwork dates back to 1640-1650. This time gap only adds to its allure as it bridges centuries together through artistry. Captured by Alinari Fratelli, renowned photographers known for their ability to immortalize artworks through their lens, this print showcases their talent once again. Their expertise allows viewers to appreciate every intricate detail of this magnificent sculpture. Whether displayed in a gallery or cherished within your own personal collection, this print serves as a reminder that art has no boundaries when it comes to conveying profound concepts such as sleep. Let yourself be captivated by its beauty and allow your imagination to wander into dreamlike realms where symbolism meets reality
