EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable stone font depicting an unguent seller, created by the Italian School in the 13th century. Currently housed at the Museo Civico di Storia ed Arte in Modena, Italy, this exquisite piece of art takes us back to medieval times when trade and commerce thrived. The intricate relief sculpture portrays a bustling scene of a vendor's stall, where customers gather to purchase various onguents. The attention to detail is truly astonishing as every aspect of this medieval marketplace comes to life. From the merchant skillfully weighing his precious oils and ointments on scales to the shopkeeper engaging with eager buyers, each figure tells its own story. The Gothic architecture surrounding the scene adds an extra layer of charm and authenticity. It serves as a reminder that these marketplaces were not only places for buying goods but also social hubs where people gathered and exchanged stories. As we admire this timeless work of art captured by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time – witnessing firsthand how essential trade was during those days. This photograph print allows us to appreciate not only the craftsmanship involved in creating such intricate sculptures but also provides insight into daily life during medieval times.
