EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork titled "High-relief" by Andrea della Robbia, a renowned Italian sculptor of the Renaissance period. Created in glazed terracotta, this masterpiece depicts the iconic scene of the Annunciation and can be found in the Upper Church of the 'Santuario della Verna' in Chiusi Della Verna. Dating back to around 1480, this artwork is a testament to della Robbia's exceptional talent and craftsmanship. The high-relief technique used here brings depth and dimension to every intricate detail, capturing the viewer's attention with its lifelike portrayal. The composition features two central figures: Virgin Mary and an angel sent by God to deliver her a divine message. The angel's presence is symbolized by his graceful wings while holding lilies, representing purity and innocence. This allegorical representation signifies Mary's role as the chosen vessel for God's plan. The serene expressions on both Mary and the angel convey a sense of awe and reverence that resonates with viewers even after centuries have passed since its creation. This timeless piece serves as a visual reminder of significant events from biblical New Testament narratives. As we admire this photograph captured by Agostini Ranieri around 1890, we are transported back in time to witness not only artistic brilliance but also spiritual devotion embodied within these delicate brushstrokes on terracotta clay. It stands as an enduring testament to humanity's ability to create beauty that transcends generations while honoring faith and spirituality through artistry.
