EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Immaculate Conception" sculpture, created by the talented artist Bernardo Schiaffino in the early 18th century. The artwork, made of exquisite marble, can be found in the Chiesa del Santissimo Redentore in Genoa, Italy. The image beautifully captures the intricate details and vibrant colors of this baroque masterpiece. The sculpture depicts the Virgin Mary standing on a cloud with her arms outstretched and adorned with flowing drapery. She is surrounded by several wildlife animals, including a mesmerizing ringed snake that coils around her feet. The symbolism within this artwork is profound; it represents the religious concept of immaculate conception and highlights Mary's purity and divine grace. A small apple rests at her side as a reference to Eve's original sin and Christ's redemption through his sacrifice. Luisa Ricciarini skillfully captured this photograph using photography art techniques reminiscent of daguerreotypes. Her keen eye for detail allows viewers to appreciate every nuance of Schiaffino's work - from the delicate expressions on Mary's face to the lifelike texture of each animal depicted. This stunning print serves as a testament to both artistic mastery and religious devotion, offering viewers an opportunity to immerse themselves in centuries-old beauty while contemplating themes of faith and salvation.
