EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the pointed portal of the Church of S. Agostino, which was rebuilt in the Church of S. Filippo in Sulmona. The intricate details of this architectural masterpiece are truly mesmerizing. The focal point of this portal is undoubtedly the bas-relief that adorns it, depicting a significant moment from Christian history. In this scene, St. Martin can be seen selflessly giving his cloak to a poor person, symbolizing compassion and charity. The cuspid pediment above the portal adds an extra touch of grandeur to the composition, with its delicate carvings and exquisite craftsmanship. It serves as a reminder of the incredible artistic talent prevalent during the Gothic period. Dating back to around the 14th century, this artwork is not only a testament to Sulmona's rich history but also reflects Europe's cultural heritage during both the first and second millenniums A. D. Anderson's photograph captures this historical gem beautifully, transporting us back in time to witness firsthand these remarkable architectural elements that have stood tall for centuries. As we gaze upon this image, we cannot help but marvel at how art has transcended time and continues to inspire awe even after so many years have passed since its creation. This print by Alinari allows us to appreciate not only religious symbolism but also admire human creativity expressed through architecture throughout different periods in history – an everlasting testament to our shared past.
