EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Abraham and Isaac" by an unknown Italian artist from the 18th century. The original sculpture, created by Simon Troger in 1738 for Carlo Emanuele III of Savoy, is currently housed in Palazzo Madama in Turin. This replica, made of ivory and wood, can be found at Pinacoteca Tosio Martinengo in Brescia, Italy. The photograph beautifully captures the intricate details of this rococo artwork. The scene depicts the biblical story of Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son Isaac as a test of faith. The emotional intensity is palpable as Abraham raises his knife while Isaac kneels before him with a look of both fear and trust. The craftsmanship exhibited in this piece is truly remarkable. Every delicate fold of fabric, every expression on their faces, and every strand of hair has been meticulously carved to convey a sense of realism and depth. It serves as a testament to the skill and artistry prevalent during the 18th century. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are reminded not only of the religious significance behind this narrative but also its timeless relevance across cultures and generations. It invites contemplation on themes such as sacrifice, faith, obedience, and divine intervention. Ghigo Roli's expert photography allows us to appreciate this magnificent work from afar while still capturing its essence up close. Through his lens, he presents us with an opportunity to explore history through art—a visual journey that transcends time
