EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of the Baroque organ in the Church of Gesù, located in Rome. The intricate details of this magnificent instrument are beautifully showcased, highlighting its significance as a masterpiece of late Baroque art. Dating back to the 17th century, this organ represents a harmonious blend of different styles and periods including Baroque, Renaissance-Baroque, and even elements from Europe's First and Second Millennium A. D. Its historical value is further emphasized by the approximate date when this artwork was created - between 1650-1700. The image also features an angelic figure known as a putto, which adds a touch of ethereal beauty to the composition. This celestial being seems to be immersed in literature or fiction while gracefully perched on top of the organ. It symbolizes not only music but also serves as a reminder that art can transport us into otherworldly realms. The high relief sculpture work on display here showcases exceptional craftsmanship with every detail meticulously carved. In addition to its musical function, this extraordinary piece doubles as an object d'art with coat-of-arms crests and emblems adorning its structure. Anderson's skillful photography transports us back in time to approximately 1890 when this snapshot was taken. Through his lens, we are able to appreciate both the artistic mastery behind this baroque marvel and its cultural significance within European history. This print offers viewers an opportunity to admire one of Rome's most treasured musical treasures while simultaneously immersing themselves in centuries-old traditions that continue to resonate today.
