EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable "Portrait of Pope Lucius II (Lucio II)" created in 1898 by an anonymous Italian artist from the 19th century. The portrait, engraved and later colored, is a testament to the skill and artistry of the Italian School. The image captures the profile of Pope Lucius II, who reigned as pontiff from 1144 to 1145. His dignified presence emanates through his piercing gaze and regal attire, reflecting his position as head of the Roman Catholic Church during that era. The engraving beautifully highlights every intricate detail, capturing not only the physical features but also conveying a sense of spiritual depth. It serves as a powerful reminder of the pope's devotion to his faith and commitment to leading his flock with wisdom and grace. Displayed within a private collection, this historical artwork offers viewers an opportunity to connect with centuries-old religious traditions. It invites contemplation on themes such as papal authority, religion's role in society, and its enduring influence throughout history. Giancarlo Costa has expertly captured this timeless piece through photography while ensuring it remains accessible for all audiences by making it out of copyright. This photograph allows us to appreciate both Costa's talent behind the lens and our shared cultural heritage represented in this extraordinary portrait.
