EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing small bronzes that reside within the prestigious Correr Museum in Venice. The intricate details of these bronze statuettes are brought to life through the lens, allowing us to marvel at their beauty and craftsmanship. The first sculpture depicted is the iconic biblical tale of David and Goliath. This Renaissance masterpiece by Andrea Briosco, known as Riccio, portrays the young shepherd boy triumphantly standing over the defeated giant. The delicate features of David's face reveal his determination and courage, while Goliath's massive figure emphasizes his imposing presence. Next to this magnificent work stands another exquisite bronze statue - Bacchus and Apollo. Created during the late Renaissance period, this piece showcases two mythological figures intertwined in an elegant dance. Bacchus, god of wine and revelry, gracefully holds a goblet while Apollo strums on his lyre; together they embody harmony between music and merriment. The photograph transports us back in time to XVI century Europe when these masterpieces were created. It allows us to appreciate not only their artistic value but also their historical significance within the context of Renaissance-Baroque styles. As we gaze upon these sculptures through Alinari Fratelli's lens from nearly a century ago, we are reminded of how art has transcended time itself. These small bronzes continue to captivate audiences with their timeless appeal – reminding us that great works endure throughout generations for all to admire.
