EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite pulpit of the Church of S. Cesareo de Appia in Rome, Italy. With its Romanesque architecture dating back to the 13th century, this remarkable piece of artwork is a testament to the rich history and craftsmanship of Europe during the Middle Ages. The photograph, taken around 1890, beautifully captures every intricate detail of this magnificent pulpit created by artists from the renowned Cosmati School. Made entirely out of marble, it stands as a true masterpiece in applied arts and crafts. As you delve into this image, your eyes are immediately drawn to the pilaster strip adorned with decorative elements that add depth and character to the overall design. The niche on one side features an enchanting griffin - a fanciful animal often found in literature and fiction - carved in high relief. Its presence adds an element of mystique and wonder to this already awe-inspiring work. The sculpture's capital rests atop a column with distinct Romanesque characteristics, further emphasizing its historical significance. This combination creates a harmonious blend between architectural elements and artistic expression. Through Anderson's lens, we can appreciate not only the beauty but also the cultural importance embodied within this photograph. It serves as a window into both ancient times and enduring artistry that has stood strong for centuries. This print is more than just an object; it represents an era when religious spaces were adorned with elaborate furnishings like these pulpits – objects that continue to inspire reverence today.
