EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent portal of the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta in Altamura, Apulia. The intricate details and architectural beauty of this late Gothic masterpiece transport us back to the Middle Ages, immersing us in the rich history of Europe. The photograph, taken between 1920-1930, captures every aspect of this remarkable artwork by Maestro Antonio di Andria. The door itself is a testament to his craftsmanship and artistic vision. Adorned with various symbolic elements such as lions representing strength and courage, angels embodying divine protection, and figures depicting Madonna and Child symbolizing life and representations of the Virgin Mary. Amidst these allegorical representations lies a brier or vegetal element that adds an intriguing touch to the composition. It intertwines with other vegetation motifs, creating a harmonious blend between nature's beauty and human creativity. The crest or emblem displayed on this late Gothic portal further enhances its significance. It serves as a type of coat-of-arms or heraldic ornament that reflects both religious devotion and historical heritage from the first millennium A. D. until present times. Alinari Fratelli has masterfully captured all these elements in their timeless photograph print. Through their lens, we are transported into an era where artistry thrived alongside faith and spirituality. As we gaze upon this image today, let it serve as a reminder not only of our shared past but also as an inspiration for future generations to appreciate the enduring legacy left behind by talented artists like Maestro Antonio di Andria.
