EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a remarkable bas relief sculpture, depicting the allegory of the sign of the zodiac, Capricorn. The artwork is housed in the Sacrament Chapel or Chapel of the Planets within the Malatesta Chapel in Rimini. Crafted by Agostino di Duccio during the High Renaissance period, this bas relief exemplifies both Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles. Its intricate details and masterful execution are a testament to Agostino's artistic skill. The image captures a goat, symbolizing Capricorn, an abstract concept representing determination and ambition. This celestial creature stands as an embodiment of terrestrial energy amidst other mammals depicted within this magnificent piece. Dating back to 1449-1455, this artwork holds historical significance from Europe's First and Second Millennium A. D. It serves as a visual representation of how art transcends time and continues to captivate viewers even centuries later. Photographed between 1920-1930 by Brogi from Alinari, this print preserves not only Agostino's masterpiece but also highlights its enduring allure for generations to come. As we gaze upon this stunning portrayal of Capricorn's symbolism through zoology and zootechnics lenses, we are reminded of humanity's fascination with astrology throughout history. The fusion of high renaissance aesthetics with abstract concepts creates a harmonious blend that resonates deeply with art enthusiasts worldwide. Whether one appreciates it for its historical value or simply marvels at its beauty, this bas relief offers us an opportunity to delve into ancient mythology while admiring Agostino di Duccio's exceptional craftsmanship.
