EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "MFC-A-004659-0050" transports us back in time to the Church of St. Peter in Chains, Rome during the late 19th century. The image showcases a masterpiece by the renowned artist Michelangelo Buonarroti - Moses. Michelangelo's extraordinary talent and attention to detail are evident in this awe-inspiring sculpture. Created between 1513 and 1515, Moses is depicted with remarkable precision and skill, capturing both his strength and wisdom. The sculpture resides within the Basilica of S. Pietro in Vincoli, where it continues to captivate visitors from around the world. In this photograph taken by Giovanni Battista Brusa sometime between 1860 and 1890, we see not only Michelangelo's masterpiece but also a group of men admiring its magnificence. Their presence adds a sense of scale to Moses' grandeur while highlighting the timeless appeal of this biblical figure. The individuals surrounding Moses wear traditional clothing that reflects their era, providing an intriguing glimpse into fashion trends from over a century ago. Among them is a man wearing sandals – an accessory that has stood the test of time throughout history. A book can be seen resting on one of the nearby benches, symbolizing knowledge and perhaps hinting at these men's scholarly interests or religious devotion as they contemplate Michelangelo's creation. This print offers us an opportunity to appreciate not only Brusa's skillful composition but also Michelangelo's enduring legacy as one of history's greatest artists. It serves as a reminder that art transcends time, connecting generations through its beauty and profound storytelling ability.
