EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the exquisite artistry of Annibale II Bentivoglio, a relief sculpture known as "The Ark Nicholas" or "Nicholas of Bari". The artwork is housed in the Church of San Giacomo Maggiore in Bologna, Italy. Created by Niccol dell'Arca, also known as Nicol d'Antonio, this masterpiece dates back to the late 15th century during the High Renaissance period. It beautifully showcases the fusion of Renaissance and Baroque styles that were prevalent during that era. The relief depicts a majestic horse adorned with armor, symbolizing strength and power. The attention to detail is remarkable - from the intricate design on its military clothing to its regal headdress. This portrayal not only highlights fashion and clothing trends of that time but also reflects the artist's skill in capturing realism. Annibale II Bentivoglio himself is portrayed in this relief with great precision. His portrait exudes authority and nobility, showcasing his prominent role within society. The plasque-like object adds an additional layer to this artwork's complexity. Photographed around 1900 by Alinari Fratelli, this print allows us to appreciate both the craftsmanship of Nicol d'Antonio's creation and Alinari's talent for capturing it through their lens. It serves as a testament to Europe's rich artistic heritage throughout different periods spanning over two millennia. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back in time – witnessing firsthand how art has evolved across centuries while still retaining its timeless beauty.
