EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the exquisite Tabernacle by Luca della Robbia in Saint Mary's Church in Peretola, a small village near Florence. The image, taken around 1890, transports us back to the early Renaissance period when this magnificent artwork was created between 1441 and 1443. The Tabernacle stands as a testament to Della Robbia's artistic genius and mastery of sculpting. Its intricate details are beautifully showcased in this print by Alinari, Fratelli. The composition reveals an array of architectural elements such as architraves and pilaster strips that frame the central scene. At its heart lies an allegorical representation featuring figures from Christian religion. The Virgin Mary is depicted alongside angels, saints, and even St. John the Evangelist from the New Testament. Each figure is meticulously crafted with lifelike precision, showcasing Della Robbia's attention to detail. The photograph also highlights various symbols scattered throughout the artwork – wings symbolizing divinity or spirituality, wreaths representing victory or honor – all contributing to a rich visual narrative. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece through time-honored lens, we can't help but marvel at how it seamlessly blends elements of both Renaissance and Baroque styles. It serves as a reminder of Europe's cultural heritage during the first and second millenniums AD. This print not only captures an ancient masterpiece frozen in time but also offers us a glimpse into fashion trends prevalent during that era with depictions of individuals adorned in period costumes. In essence, Alinari has masterfully captured every nuance of this awe-inspiring Tabernacle by Luca della Robbia – allowing viewers to appreciate its beauty for generations to come while preserving history itself within each brushstroke captured on film.
