EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of the choir in the interior of the church of San Damiano, located in Assisi, Perugia. Steeped in history and religious significance, this ancient church stands as a testament to the enduring power of faith throughout the Middle Ages. The choir stall depicted in this artwork is a remarkable example of exquisite woodwork from the XII - XIII centuries. Its intricate carvings and meticulous craftsmanship showcase the mastery of applied arts and crafts during that era. As you gaze upon this image, you can almost feel yourself transported back in time to an age when such architectural marvels were revered. The Church of San Damiano itself holds great importance within Christian tradition. It served as a place where Saint Francis received his divine calling and embarked on his spiritual journey towards founding one of history's most influential religious orders – The Franciscans. This sacred space has witnessed countless prayers, hymns, and moments of deep introspection over its long existence. Photographed around 1939 by Alinari Fratelli, this image not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder that faith transcends generations. It allows us to connect with our ancestors who sought solace within these hallowed walls centuries ago. As we admire this photograph print today, let us appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance. May it inspire us to reflect on our own spirituality while reminding us that even amidst changing times, some things remain constant – like our need for sanctuary and connection with something greater than ourselves.
