EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring Marble altar with Six Stories of the Passion of Christ, a sculptured masterpiece by Tommaso Rodari. Located in the magnificent Cathedral of Como, this altar is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship and artistic genius of the Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles. Dating back to 1492, this artwork stands as a timeless symbol of faith and devotion. The intricate details on each panel depict various scenes from the life of Christ, including his crucifixion, resurrection, flagellation, and sepulchre. As you gaze upon it, you can't help but feel an overwhelming sense of reverence and contemplation. The photograph itself was taken between 1915-1920 by Alinari Fratelli. It beautifully captures not only the grandeur of Rodari's sculpture but also highlights its surroundings within Como Cathedral. The arches and building elements add to its architectural splendor while creating a harmonious backdrop for such sacred art. In this image, we see figures such as Virgin Mary, John the Apostle, angels alongside soldiers who evoke emotions ranging from pain to desperation. Their psychological behavior reflects their deep connection with these biblical events that have shaped human history. Beyond its religious significance lies an appreciation for Rodari's mastery in depicting human anatomy through his sculptures. The male figure at the center represents Christ on the cross – a powerful portrayal that conveys both physical suffering and spiritual redemption. As your eyes wander across this photograph's landscape filled with hillsides adorned with lush vegetation, you are transported back in time to experience Europe during its first and second millenniums. This visual journey allows us to delve into individual stories intertwined within physiological aspects mentioned in Bible New Testament. Overall, this print serves as a window into history—a glimpse into one artist's interpretation of faith—and invites viewers to reflect upon their own beliefs while marveling at centuries-old craftsmanship that continues to inspire awe today.
