EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the exquisite craftsmanship of a carved wooden wardrobe, a true masterpiece by Grazioso Fantoni il Vecchio. Located in the Sacristy of the Cathedral of San Martino in Alzano Maggiore, near Bergamo, this stunning piece showcases both Baroque and Renaissance influences. Dating back to the 17th century, this wardrobe stands as a testament to Fantoni's skill and artistry. The intricate details are brought to life through delicate carvings depicting angelic figures, creating an ethereal atmosphere within the sacred space. The wardrobe serves not only as a functional storage unit but also as a work of art that adds grandeur and elegance to its surroundings. The photograph itself was taken between 1915-1920, capturing every nuance and texture with remarkable clarity. It is evident that Alinari Fratelli understood how to capture the essence of this extraordinary artwork. In addition to showcasing Fantoni's talent, this image offers glimpses into religious attire from centuries past. A bishop's cope hangs prominently on one side while various headdresses adorn other sections of the wardrobe. These accessories provide insight into Christian fashion during that era. As we admire this photograph today, we can't help but be transported back in time – imagining ourselves standing before this magnificent creation in all its glory. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and the enduring beauty found within historical artifacts like these. Whether you appreciate fine craftsmanship or have an interest in religious history, this print encapsulates it all – inviting us on a visual journey through time and leaving us captivated by its timeless allure.
