EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a remarkable work of art, a disc depicting San Giovanni Evangelista, created by the renowned artist Luca Della Robbia. Crafted from terracotta and encased in glass, this masterpiece can be found within the Pazzi Chapel, nestled in the serene Cloister of Santa Croce in Florence. The disc exudes an air of elegance and sophistication with its intricate design and exquisite craftsmanship. It is a prime example of the High Relief Early Renaissance style that flourished during this period. The artwork seamlessly blends elements from both Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles, showcasing the artistic evolution that took place throughout Europe during the first and second millenniums. San Giovanni Evangelista stands as the central figure on this disc, portrayed with great attention to detail. His saintly presence is accentuated by his majestic attire and dignified expression. As one of Christ's apostles, he holds immense significance within Christian religion. Beyond its religious symbolism, this artwork also serves as an allegory for ancient times. The eagle depicted alongside San Giovanni represents strength and power while alluding to abstract concepts such as wisdom or divine inspiration. Dating back to the 15th century (XV sec. ), this piece transports us back in time to witness not only Della Robbia's genius but also gain insight into fashion trends prevalent during that era. Alinari Fratelli has skillfully captured every nuance of this extraordinary artwork through their lens around 1890 AD (ca. ). Their photographic expertise allows us to appreciate every delicate brushstroke made by Della Robbia himself. As we gaze upon this print today, we are reminded of how art transcends time; it connects us with our past while inspiring future generations.
