EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of The Cathedral of Notre-Dame in Strasbourg, France. Standing proudly on the right hip of this magnificent Gothic structure is a beautifully crafted statue, placed with utmost care to enhance its aesthetic appeal. Dating back to the 13th century, this artwork is a testament to the artistic brilliance of the Middle Ages. The statue itself represents an allegory, an abstract concept brought to life through symbol and type of representation. It takes the form of a regal female figure adorned in exquisite fashion and clothing from that period. Her hairdo and hairstyle reflect nobility, while her mantle cloak adds an air of mystery and elegance. In her hands rests an instrument - a cross - signifying faith and spirituality within this religious context. This portrayal not only showcases the significance of religion during those times but also highlights how art was used as a powerful medium for conveying messages. As we delve deeper into this photograph's details, our eyes are drawn towards other elements that enrich its composition. A globe sits at her feet, representing Europe during both the first and second millenniums AD. , reminding us that history has shaped our present reality. This remarkable piece serves as a reminder of how art transcends time; it allows us to appreciate centuries-old craftsmanship while connecting us with past cultures. As we admire this image captured between 1950-1960 ca. , let us be transported back in time to witness firsthand the beauty that once graced these hallowed halls – where architecture met sculpture in perfect harmony.
