EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a remarkable piece of art that stands proudly above the entrance of the Scuola dei Caleghieri in Venice. The focal point of this image is the exquisite lunette with a bas-relief depicting St. Mark healing St. Anianus, created by the talented artist Pietro Lombardo during the Renaissance period. The intricate details and masterful craftsmanship are evident in every inch of this artwork, showcasing Lombardo's immense skill and artistic vision. The composition portrays St. Mark, dressed in ancient costume, reaching out to heal St. Anianus, who kneels before him with an expression of hope on his face. The fusion of Renaissance-Baroque styles is apparent in this piece as it combines elements from both periods seamlessly. This amalgamation creates a visually stunning work that embodies the spirit and grandeur of European art during these eras. The photograph itself was taken between 1920-1930 by Alinari, Fratelli - renowned photographers known for their ability to capture timeless beauty through their lens. Their expertise shines through as they perfectly frame this magnificent artwork against a backdrop that highlights its elegance even further. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back to 1478 when Lombardo first brought his creation to life. It serves as a testament not only to his talent but also to the enduring power of art throughout history. This photograph invites us into a world where religious devotion meets artistic brilliance; where faith intertwines with creativity; where past and present collide harmoniously within one frame. It reminds us why Venice remains an eternal source of inspiration for artists and admirers alike.
