EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable reproduction of a hunting scene and a garden with animals and exotic plants. The image captures the intricate Norman mosaic inside the Room of King Roger, located in the majestic Palermo Royal Palace, also known as the Palace of the Normans. Dating back to approximately 1170 AD, this stunning artwork reflects the distinctive Norman style prevalent during the Middle Ages in Europe. The photograph itself was taken around 1890, providing us with a glimpse into this ancient masterpiece that has stood for centuries. The composition is rich with symbolism and detail. In this vibrant mosaic, we see an arch adorned with various instruments used for hunting, emphasizing its importance during that period. Surrounding it are graceful swans and birds representing vertebrates found within this enchanting garden setting. Animals play a significant role in this depiction as well; a regal peacock struts proudly while dogs stand attentively nearby. Terrestrial mammals such as deer add to the authenticity of this hunting scene. The figures depicted wear attire characteristic of their time, showcasing fashion and clothing from ancient periods gone by. Lush palm trees tower over them while other vegetal elements contribute to an overall sense of natural beauty. This extraordinary print by Brogi from Alinari invites us to appreciate both artistry and history simultaneously. It transports us back through time to witness firsthand the grandeur and sophistication of Norman craftsmanship during medieval Europe's first millennium.
