EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing detail from the Altar of Saint James the Major in Lucca Cathedral, Italy. The intricate silver artwork, created by Ser Giovanni and Francesco di Niccolo in 1364, depicts Adam and Eve being expelled from Paradise. The scene is part of the antependium lateral decore which showcases episodes from the Old Testament. In this particular panel, we witness the moment when God punishes Adam and Eve for their disobedience. The anguish on their faces is palpable as they are forced to leave behind their idyllic existence. The craftsmanship displayed in this piece is truly remarkable. Every delicate carving and meticulous detail brings life to this biblical scene. It serves as a testament to the artistic genius of these Italian masters during the Trecento period. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of humanity's fallibility and our constant struggle between temptation and redemption. It also invites us to reflect on themes such as punishment, religion, and morality that have been explored throughout history. Luisa Ricciarini has skillfully captured not only the beauty but also the emotional depth of this artwork through her photography expertise. This print allows us to appreciate every nuance of Ser Giovanni and Francesco di Niccolo's masterpiece while adding a touch of elegance to any space it adorns.
