EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of "Fortitude" a high relief sculpture adorning a pillar in the chapel of San Sigismondo within the magnificent Malatesta Temple in Rimini. The temple, an architectural marvel blending High Renaissance, Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods, stands as a testament to Europe's rich cultural heritage spanning over two millennia. Dating back to around 1450, this masterpiece was created by the talented artist Agostino di Duccio (1418 - died before 1488). "Fortitude" represents virtue and serves as an allegory for strength and resilience. As an abstract concept and symbol, it beautifully embodies these qualities through its intricate details and powerful presence. The sculpture is gracefully positioned on a column amidst other building elements, enhancing the overall grandeur of the chapel's architecture. Its meticulous decoration and sections showcase the mastery of both sculptor and architect alike. In this photograph taken between 1920-1930 by Brogi from Alinari, we are able to appreciate every nuance of Agostino di Duccio's work. The winged figure exudes confidence with its poised stance while holding a plume—a symbol often associated with fortitude during that period. This remarkable piece belongs to the High Renaissance era but also reflects influences from earlier Renaissance periods leading up to Baroque styles. It stands as a timeless representation of European artistry throughout history. As we gaze upon this print capturing "Fortitude" we are transported back in time—immersing ourselves in centuries-old craftsmanship that continues to inspire awe today.
