EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a remarkable panel from Giambologna's school, showcasing "The Assumption of the Virgin Mary". Located in the central portal of the Cathedral of Pisa, this exquisite piece is a testament to the artistic brilliance of Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods. Taken around 1920-1930, this print allows us to appreciate an artwork that dates back to 1595. Created by Giambologna and his school, it depicts a momentous scene filled with astonishment and surprise. The composition includes various elements such as gestures, instruments, clouds, and meteorological phenomena that enhance its visual impact. At its core lies the subject of the assumption - a pivotal event in Christian theology where Mary is believed to have been taken up into heaven after her death. Surrounding her are apostles who display diverse psychological behaviors ranging from awe-struck expressions to reverential postures. The sepulcher structure or place serves as a backdrop for this divine occurrence while an angelic figure hovers above Mary. The figures are dressed in period costumes reflecting ancient mannerism prevalent during that time in Europe. Through this photograph by Brogi from Alinari, we get glimpses into both physiological and psychological aspects conveyed by each individual depicted. This artwork draws inspiration from biblical narratives found in the New Testament while also embodying renaissance baroque styles characteristic of First and Second Millennium A. D. As we admire this print's intricate details and masterful execution, it transports us back centuries ago when art was not only visually stunning but also deeply meaningful. It reminds us of our rich cultural heritage and invites contemplation on themes like faith, spirituality, and human connection with celestial realms.
