EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent lunette of the west portal in the Parma Baptistry, a true masterpiece of Romanesque art from the Middle Ages. The focal point of this intricate composition is none other than Christ the Redemptor himself, surrounded by a host of celestial angels. Their ethereal presence adds an air of divine majesty to this theological subject. As we shift our gaze towards the archivolt, we are greeted by a gathering of solemn figures - the Apostles. Each one stands tall and proud, their expressions filled with wisdom and faith. They serve as witnesses to Christ's ultimate sacrifice and play a vital role in conveying his message to humanity. Moving further down, our eyes rest upon the architrave where an awe-inspiring scene unfolds - The Resurrection. This pivotal moment in biblical history symbolizes hope and eternal life after death. It serves as a powerful reminder that redemption awaits all who believe. The photograph itself was captured between 1915-1920 but immortalizes artwork created between 1196-1270 by Benedetto Antelami or someone closely associated with him. Its timeless quality transports us back through time, allowing us to appreciate not only its artistic brilliance but also its historical significance. This remarkable piece encapsulates Europe's rich cultural heritage during both the first and second millennium A. D. , serving as a testament to human creativity across centuries. With every glance at this print, one cannot help but marvel at how art has transcended time and continues to inspire generations even today.
