EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Adriano Fiorentino, a renowned Italian sculptor from the 15th century. Titled "Felicitas Seated, Holding Ears of Corn and Waving Cornucopiae" this bronze relief carving is a true masterpiece. The image depicts an allegorical figure, Felicitas, personifying happiness and abundance. Seated gracefully with a serene expression on her face, she holds ears of corn in one hand while waving a cornucopiae in the other. The intricate details of her flowing robes and delicate features are beautifully captured in this photograph. The Latin inscription inscribed on the sculpture adds to its allure, enhancing its mythical charm. Birds perch nearby as if drawn by Felicitas' presence, adding an element of nature to this allegory. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this artwork is part of Italy's rich artistic heritage. It serves as a testament to Fiorentino's exceptional talent and his contribution to Renaissance art. Through this photo print, viewers can appreciate not only the technical skill involved but also the deeper meaning behind it – celebrating prosperity and contentment. Whether displayed in an art centre or gallery or cherished within personal collections, this piece evokes admiration for both its aesthetic beauty and symbolic significance.
