EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant historical moment, "The reconciliation between Pope Alexander III and Frederick Barbarossa" immortalized by Giuseppe della Porta Salviati. The image showcases the profound meeting of two powerful figures in the presence of Doge Sebastiano Ziani, creating an atmosphere filled with intrigue and anticipation. In this remarkable artwork, we witness Pope Alexander III, also known as Rolando or Orlando of Siena, who served as pope from 1159 to 1181. His influence extended beyond religious matters; he even laid the foundation stone at Notre Dame de Paris. Standing beside him is Frederick I Barbarossa, the German Holy Roman Emperor whose reign spanned from 1122 to 1190. The scene unfolds against a backdrop that exudes grandeur and magnificence - a Venetian cathedral facade serving as a symbol of power and authority. A crowd gathers around them, representing various political interests and clergymen seeking guidance during these tumultuous times. With meticulous pen strokes and delicate brown washes, Porta Salviati masterfully brings this historic event to life on paper. Every detail is meticulously captured – from the intricate mitres worn by clergy members to the supplicating gestures of those bowing before their leaders. This extraordinary piece not only offers us insight into an important moment in history but also serves as a testament to Italian Renaissance artistry. It stands proudly among The Devonshire Collections at Chatsworth House – an invaluable addition that allows us
