EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of the symbols of evangelists John and Marc, intricately carved on the tribune of the Priory in Serrabone, Roussillon, France. Dating back to the 12th century and representing Romanesque art at its finest, this sculpture is a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of that era. The image captures two distinct symbols - an eagle for evangelist John and a lion for evangelist Marc. These powerful animal representations hold great significance in religious iconography. The eagle symbolizes divine inspiration and spiritual vision while the lion represents strength and courage. The level of detail in this carving is truly remarkable. Each feather on the eagle's wings is delicately etched, conveying a sense of movement as if it were about to take flight. Similarly, every strand of fur on the lion's mane is meticulously rendered, showcasing its regal presence. As we delve into history through this photograph, we are transported back to a time when faith played an integral role in people's lives. This artwork serves as a visual reminder of biblical characters like Saint John and Saint Marc who dedicated their lives to spreading God's word. Luisa Ricciarini has expertly captured this piece with her lens, allowing us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance. Through her work, she brings forth an appreciation for medieval artistry that continues to inspire awe even today.
