EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the timeless beauty of "Fortitude" a magnificent bronze group sculpture created by Giambologna and his skilled assistants. The artwork is proudly displayed in the Palazzo dell'Universit, located in the enchanting city of Genoa. Dating back to 1579-1587, this masterpiece perfectly embodies the Mannerism style of art prevalent during that era. Combining elements from both Renaissance and Baroque periods, "Fortitude" stands as a testament to Europe's rich artistic heritage throughout the first and second millenniums A. D. The photograph itself was taken around 1900, showcasing not only the enduring allure of Giambologna's creation but also capturing an important moment in history. The artist behind this remarkable piece is none other than Jean de Boulogne, better known as Giambologna. Intriguingly, "Fortitude" represents more than just a mere statue; it serves as a powerful allegory for strength and resilience. This abstract concept is brought to life through an elegant female figure adorned with military accessories such as a religious helmet and headdress. Her poised gesture exudes confidence while her determined expression conveys unwavering fortitude. The architectural backdrop further enhances the impact of this extraordinary sculpture. With its imposing structure resembling a fortress or stronghold, it symbolizes protection against adversity. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print captured by Brogi from Alinari, we are transported back in time to witness not only an exceptional work of art but also gain insight into European history and culture during these influential artistic periods.
