EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the impressive Ark processional of St. John the Baptist, housed in the Museum of the Treasury of the Cathedral of San Lorenzo in Genoa, Italy. Commissioned by the Priors Chapel and meticulously crafted by Teramo Danieli and Simone Caldera between 1438 and 1445, this masterpiece is a testament to their exceptional skill. Constructed from embossed silver, cast with intricate details, and adorned with gilt and enamels by Danieli and Caldera themselves, this Ark is a true work of art. Its design resembles a miniature Gothic church, with its central part depicting various scenes from the life of St. John the Baptist: his announcement to Zechariah, visitation to Mary, birth, imposition of his name, angelic guidance into the desert for preaching purposes, actual preaching moments captured beautifully on its surface along with Herod's feast scene as well as his burial. The corners are adorned with exquisite depictions of other saints including St. John the Evangelist, St. Matthew , St George, and St Lawrence adding further grandeur to this remarkable piece. Photographer Ghigo Roli has expertly captured every detail in this image that truly brings out its splendor. It serves as a reminder not only of Genoa's rich artistic heritage but also pays homage to these talented craftsmen who dedicated years to create such an extraordinary treasure for future generations to admire.
