EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a remarkable piece of history, showcasing the archivolt of the Portal of Santa Maria Parish Church in Arezzo. The intricate bas-relief artwork, dating back to the 13th century, depicts the months of July, August, and September. In this mesmerizing scene from medieval Europe, we are transported to a time when farming and country life were at their peak. The attention to detail is astonishing as we observe men dressed in period clothing engaged in various agricultural activities. They are seen amidst a bountiful harvest season surrounded by lush vegetation. The focus lies on July where farmers are diligently working with baskets filled with straw objects used for crafting or applied arts. As we move along the archivolt, August presents itself with an abundance of grape harvesting scenes. Workers can be seen carefully tending to vineyards while others transport grapes using tubs and vats. Finally, September introduces us to a fig tree bearing fruit alongside other shrubs symbolizing nature's bounty during this month. Each element within this Romanesque masterpiece has been intricately carved into stone walls that have stood strong for centuries. Photographed by Alinari Brothers in 1927, this print not only showcases exceptional craftsmanship but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity throughout different periods in history. It allows us to appreciate the rich cultural heritage embedded within European architecture and artistry from both the first and second millenniums AD. This photograph is more than just an image; it encapsulates centuries worth of tradition and provides us with a glimpse into our ancestors' way of life – their connection with nature and their unwavering dedication towards sustaining themselves through agriculture.
