EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a remarkable piece of artistry on the north side of St. Mark's Basilica in Venice. The print showcases the exquisite reliefs depicting "St. Leonard between two angels" which are believed to date back to the 13th century. The intricate details of this Romanesque masterpiece come alive through Alinari's lens, showcasing the craftsmanship and skill that went into creating these stunning sculptures. The relief portrays St. Leonard, a revered saint known for his compassion and dedication to helping prisoners, flanked by two graceful angels. As we delve into this image, our eyes are drawn to every element meticulously carved into stone - from the delicate wings of the angels to St. Leonard's serene expression as he holds an instrument or object closely resembling a cross. The inscription nearby adds another layer of intrigue, hinting at an ancient form of communication that has withstood the test of time. Transporting us back in time, this photograph serves as a window into Europe's rich history during the Middle Ages and reminds us of its profound influence on art and religion throughout centuries past. It is a testament to human creativity and devotion that continues to inspire awe even today. Alinari Fratelli's expert photography allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the significance behind each figure portrayed in this artwork – figures deeply rooted in Christian religion and biblical narratives found within both Old Testament traditions and New Testament teachings. This print is not just an artistic representation; it is a visual journey through time – capturing moments from both First Millennium A. D. , when these reliefs were created, up until early 20th-century Venice when Alinari captured their essence forevermore.
