EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite etching on laid paper, created by the skilled hand of Israeli artist Israel Silvestre the Younger during the Baroque era around 1640-1660, captures the breathtaking exterior of the ancient Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome, Italy. The basilica, a prominent landmark and architectural masterpiece of the Middle Ages, is depicted in monochrome, with intricate details etched in white and black. The image showcases the basilica's grand dome, adorned with ornate columns and pillars, which have stood the test of time since the 5th century. Santa Maria Maggiore, a significant pilgrimage site and art center, is one of the oldest and most famous Christian churches in Rome. Its rich history and cultural significance have made it a must-visit destination for art enthusiasts and history buffs alike. Israel Silvestre, a French artist who spent a considerable amount of time in Italy, was known for his exceptional etching skills. His etching of Santa Maria Maggiore is a testament to the beauty and grandeur of ancient Rome and the enduring allure of its architectural heritage. This artwork is now part of the National Gallery of Art's collection in Washington, D.C., where it continues to inspire and intrigue visitors from around the world.
