EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of the frieze adorning the Portico of the Ospedale del Ceppo in Pistoia. Created by the renowned artist Giovanni della Robbia, this particular section focuses on the theme of Charity. The artwork, dating back to around 1525, beautifully captures an allegory of compassion and selflessness. The intricate design features various elements that symbolize different aspects of this abstract concept. From footwear and accessories representing fashion and clothing to a child's innocent presence embodying purity and innocence, every detail has been carefully crafted. The human body takes center stage in this composition as well, with a nude figure prominently displayed. The face exudes warmth and kindness while emphasizing both physiological and psychological aspects associated with acts of charity. Adding depth to the artwork are vegetal elements scattered throughout, showcasing nature's role in nurturing humanity's compassionate spirit. These lush vegetation compositions further enhance the overall concept expressed within this piece. One cannot help but be drawn into this powerful image that encapsulates individual acts of benevolence wrapped in a metaphorical cloak or mantle. It serves as a reminder for us all to embrace our capacity for empathy and extend helping hands towards those in need. Captured through Alinari Fratelli's lens around 1900, this print immortalizes Della Robbia's masterpiece for generations to come. Its timeless beauty continues to inspire contemplation on one of humanity's most cherished virtues – charity.
