EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Processional cross with Saint George, housed in the parish church of San Michele di Cernobbio on the picturesque shores of Lake Como. The cross, a remarkable example of Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles, transports us back to Europe's First and Second Millennium A. D. Dating back to the 15th century (XV sec), this artwork is a testament to the enduring power of Christian religion and its rich iconography. Saint George, depicted prominently on the cross, stands as a symbol of courage and faith. His presence evokes a sense of divine protection for all who worship within these sacred walls. The craftsmanship displayed in this sculpture is truly awe-inspiring. Every intricate detail has been meticulously carved by skilled hands - from the delicate frieze work to every vegetable-shaped object that adorns it. This processional cross not only serves as an object of devotion but also reflects the possessions cherished by nobility during that era. Alinari Fratelli's photograph captures both the grandeur and intimacy found within this religious artifact. The lighting highlights each contour, bringing life to its timeless beauty while preserving its historical significance for generations to come. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported through time into an era where art was intertwined with spirituality. It reminds us that even today, amidst our modern lives, there is still room for reverence and appreciation for centuries-old masterpieces like this Processional cross with Saint George at San Michele di Cernobbio on Lake Como.
