EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a print of "Stories from the life of Saint Rocco" a magnificent work by Giovanni Marchiori (1696-1778), displayed in the grand hall of the Scuola di San Rocco in Venice. The image showcases an exquisite low relief, bas-relief artwork dating back to the eighteenth century, showcasing both Renaissance and Baroque styles. The Scuola di San Rocco is renowned for its stunning collection of religious art, and this particular piece pays homage to Saint Rocco, a revered figure in Christian religion. The print beautifully depicts various episodes from his extraordinary life, offering viewers a glimpse into his remarkable journey. Giovanni Marchiori's masterful craftsmanship shines through every intricate detail captured in this photograph. From delicate facial expressions to meticulously carved textures, each element contributes to the overall visual narrative that unfolds before our eyes.

It serves as a testament not only to Anderson's skill behind the lens but also as evidence of humanity's enduring fascination with art throughout history.
