EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Francesco Furini's fresco, "Allegory of the death of Lorenzo de Medici il Magnifico" located in Palazzo Pitti, Florence. The painting depicts the renowned figure Laurent de Medicis, also known as The Magnificent, who lived from 1449 to 1492. In this scene, on the right side of the composition, we see a representation of the deities of fate known as the Cabinets or Parques: Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos. These powerful figures symbolize destiny and hold great influence over human life. The artwork is filled with rich symbolism. A cloud hovers above Laurent de Medicis while a swan gracefully glides through it. This celestial bird represents purity and transcendence from earthly matters. An old man holds a pair of scissors that represent death's inevitability. The fresco beautifully portrays both youth and oldness intertwined within its narrative. It showcases intricate details such as an animal-shaped buckler held by one figure and heavenly birds soaring above. Francesco Furini masterfully brings together mythology, artistry, and history in this stunning piece created around 1635 during Italy's Seicento period. Luisa Ricciarini has skillfully captured this extraordinary artwork in her photograph print for Fine Art Finder. Through her lens, viewers can appreciate every brushstroke and detail that make up this significant piece from Italian art history.
