EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases two beautifully sculpted capitals depicting Noah's Ark, found in the cloister of the Cathedral of Cefalù in Sicily. The intricate details and craftsmanship on these Romanesque capitals transport us back to the Middle Ages, offering a glimpse into Europe's rich artistic heritage from the first and second millennium A. D. The photograph was taken around 1930, capturing the timeless allure of these ancient artworks. Dating back to the 12th and 13th centuries, these capitals tell the biblical story of Noah with remarkable precision. The patriarchs, people, and animals aboard the ark are depicted in low relief, bringing this iconic tale to life. One cannot help but marvel at how this work of sculpture seamlessly blends religious symbolism with natural elements. The acanthus leaves adorning these capitals symbolize rebirth and immortality while adding an exquisite touch of herbaceous beauty to their design. These sculptures serve as a testament to both human creativity and devotion during a significant period in European history. They remind us of our connection to ancient narratives that have shaped cultures for centuries. Anderson's skillful photography captures every nuance and texture present on these magnificent works of art. Through his lens, we can appreciate not only their historical significance but also their aesthetic splendor. As we gaze upon this print from Alinari, let us be transported through time and space – appreciating not just its visual appeal but also pondering upon humanity's enduring fascination with storytelling through art across generations.
