EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Tomb of Robert I of Anjou, famously known as Robert the Wise. Crafted from exquisite marble by the skilled hands of Giovanni and Pacio Bertini in the mid-fourteenth century, this masterpiece resides within the Church of Santa Chiara in Naples. The photograph, taken between 1920-1930, allows us to marvel at every intricate detail of this remarkable tomb. The artwork itself dates back to 1343-1345 and is a testament to the artistic prowess of its creators. The inscription on the tomb reveals that it serves as a symbol for various abstract concepts such as allegory, astronomy, virtue, music, geometry, rhetoric, arithmetic, grammar, dialectic - all essential disciplines during those times. Standing tall beside this sepulchre are angelic figures and towering spires that add an ethereal touch to the overall composition. Pilasters adorned with ornate carvings further enhance its grandeur. This funerary structure not only pays homage to Robert I but also represents nobility and European heritage. As we delve into this mesmerizing image captured by Alinari Fratelli's lens (not associated with any commercial use), we are transported back in time to Europe's Middle Ages. It evokes a sense of reverence for history while showcasing architectural brilliance intertwined with religious symbolism. This print is more than just an image; it encapsulates centuries worth of culture and tradition within its frame. It reminds us that art has always been a powerful means of communication throughout human civilization – conveying stories from biblical texts through visual representation. In essence, this photograph invites us to appreciate both historical significance and artistic excellence simultaneously – offering glimpses into Europe's first and second millenniums AD through one awe-inspiring work created by two talented artists: Giovanni and Pacio Bertini
