EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the intricate beauty of the Chest-reliquary of San Quirino, a precious artifact preserved in the Convent of St. Mary in Zara, Croatia. Crafted during the Middle Ages, this reliquary is made of embossed silver and showcases remarkable artistry. The focal point of this image is an exquisite pointed arch adorned with delicate details. Underneath it, saints and evangelists are depicted with great precision, their figures etched into the silver surface. Each saint seems to come alive under the skillful hands of the artist who created this masterpiece centuries ago. The photograph transports us back in time to experience Europe's rich history during the first and second millennium A. D. It offers a glimpse into a world where religious devotion was expressed through awe-inspiring works like this reliquary. As we admire this artwork captured by Alinari, Fratelli around 1938, we can't help but marvel at how such intricate craftsmanship has endured over time. The attention to detail on every element – from architectural features like columns and capitals to depictions of evangelists – speaks volumes about both artistic talent and Christian faith during medieval times. This print serves as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with religion throughout history. It invites us to reflect on our own beliefs while appreciating the cultural heritage left behind by those who came before us.
