EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the Church of S. Anastasia in Verona, Italy. The focal point of this image is a magnificent statue of a saint, which stands proudly on the Fregoso Altar. This exquisite piece of artwork was created by the talented artist Danese Cattaneo during the Renaissance-Baroque period in 1565. The statue itself exudes an air of grace and nobility, depicting a soldier adorned in armor and military attire. His clothing reflects the fashion trends of that era, with intricate details such as a military helmet and headdress adding to his regal appearance. A shield rests at his side, symbolizing his role as a defender and protector. As we delve deeper into this photograph, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also its historical significance. It serves as a testament to Europe's rich cultural heritage throughout the first and second millenniums AD. Captured approximately three centuries after its creation, this print was taken around 1935 by Pietro Fiorentini from Alinari. The timeless quality captured within this image allows us to appreciate both the craftsmanship behind Cattaneo's masterpiece and Fiorentini's skillful eye for detail. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply captivated by history, this print offers an intriguing glimpse into Mannerism - one of Europe's most influential artistic styles - while showcasing Verona's architectural splendor at one of its finest churches: S. Anastasia.
