EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases two exquisite procession lanterns that have been preserved in the Madonna of the Gallery Church, located in Bologna. These lanterns, dating back to the eighteenth century and reflecting Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods, offer a glimpse into Europe's rich artistic heritage spanning over two millennia. The intricate craftsmanship of these lanterns is truly remarkable. Adorned with delicate floral motifs and vegetal elements, they exude an air of elegance and sophistication. The presence of briers adds a touch of natural beauty to their design, further enhancing their aesthetic appeal. It is evident that great attention to detail was given during their creation, as every leaf and vegetal composition has been meticulously crafted. These lanterns hold significant historical value as they represent the religious practices prevalent during the eighteenth century. Used in processions held by St. Mary del Soccorso Church, they served as beacons of light guiding worshippers through darkened streets on sacred occasions. Captured between 1915-1920 by Alinari Fratelli, this photograph immortalizes these precious artifacts for future generations to appreciate. The play of light and shadow highlights the intricate details carved into each lantern's surface while emphasizing their timeless beauty. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an era when artistry flourished under the influence of Renaissance-Baroque styles. These procession lanterns stand as testaments to human creativity and devotion throughout history—a reminder that even today, centuries later; we can still marvel at the ingenuity displayed by our ancestors.
