EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print showcases the intricate beauty and artistic mastery of Giovanni Pisano's Pulpit, a grandiose work of art created between 1302 and 1311. Hailing from the Italian city of Pisa, located on the Tuscan Peninsula in central Italy, Pisano was a renowned sculptor and architect of the late Gothic and early Renaissance periods. The Pulpit, also known as the Baptistery Pulpit, is located inside the Baptistery of St. John in Pisa's magnificent Cathedral Square. Carved from marble, this vertical relief sculpture is a testament to Pisano's exceptional skill in manipulating the material to create dynamic, three-dimensional figures. The relief is adorned with intricate details, vibrant colors, and a sense of movement that brings the biblical stories it depicts to life. The Pulpit's design is a prime example of the Tuscan Romanesque style, which was a precursor to the Renaissance movement. Its vertical orientation and rich, colorful decoration reflect the artistic trends of the time, as well as the influence of the Italian peninsula's rich cultural heritage. This print invites us to explore the interior of the Baptistery and to appreciate the intricacies of Pisano's work up close. The intricate details of the reliefs, the play of light and shadow, and the sense of depth created by the carving all contribute to the Pulpit's enduring appeal and its status as a masterpiece of European art.
