EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the exquisite "Bust of St. Francis" by Tullio Lombardo, housed in the enchanting church of Santa Maria dei Miracoli in Venice. The bust, created during the Early Renaissance period between 1481 and 1489, showcases Lombardo's mastery in sculpting religious figures. The image portrays a male saint with an air of serenity and devotion. St. Francis is depicted wearing his traditional habit, symbolizing his commitment to poverty and simplicity as a follower of Christ. His eyes gaze upward with profound spirituality, while his gentle smile exudes compassion for all living beings. Lombardo's artistic brilliance shines through every intricate detail captured in this print. From the delicate folds of St. Francis' clothing to the meticulous carving of his facial features, it is evident that this sculpture was crafted with immense skill and reverence. The photograph itself dates back to around 1900 when Alinari Fratelli expertly immortalized this masterpiece on film. Through their lens, they have preserved not only Lombardo's artistry but also a glimpse into European history spanning over two millennia. As we admire this remarkable artwork frozen in time, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by great artists like Tullio Lombardo during the Renaissance era - a period characterized by its pursuit of beauty, humanism, and spiritual enlightenment. This print serves as a testament to both artistic excellence and religious devotion; it transports us back centuries ago when faith played an integral role in shaping European culture. It invites us to contemplate our own beliefs while appreciating the timeless beauty that art can convey across generations.
