EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Lorenzo Monaco, titled "Calvary". Painted with tempera on wood and featuring a fresco background, this masterpiece can be found in the Chiesa di San Giovannino dei Cavalieri in Florence, Italy. The Church of Saint John the Baptist of the Knights is home to this remarkable piece that depicts a significant moment in Christian history. The image captures the profound religious symbolism surrounding Calvary, also known as Golgotha - the site where Jesus Christ was crucified. The cross stands tall at its center, representing sacrifice and redemption within Christianity. Surrounding it are figures such as Saint John and Madonna, symbolizing devotion and mourning for Jesus' death. Lorenzo Monaco's attention to detail is evident through his meticulous brushwork and use of vibrant colors. This artwork transports viewers back to the 14th or 15th century when it was created, allowing us to appreciate both its historical significance and artistic brilliance. Photographer Nicolo Orsi Battaglini skillfully captures every intricate detail of this painting through his lens. His photograph preserves not only Monaco's work but also evokes a sense of reverence for these religious icons. This print serves as a powerful reminder of faith and spirituality while honoring an important period in art history. It invites viewers to reflect on their own beliefs while appreciating the timeless beauty captured within this sacred space.
