EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring beauty of the Basilica of Sant'Ambrogio in Milan. The focal point of the image is a magnificent pulpit adorned with fragments of monstrous animals, showcasing the exquisite craftsmanship typical of Roman plastic arts. Beneath this remarkable piece stands the sarcophagus of Stilicone, adding an air of mystery and historical significance to the scene. The photograph, taken around 1890, transports us back in time to witness early Christian art at its finest. The stonework detailing on both the pulpit and sarcophagus is truly mesmerizing, reflecting Europe's rich artistic heritage from the first and second millennium A. D. Intriguingly, we can observe several individuals dressed in apostolic attire surrounding this masterpiece. Their presence adds a human touch to this otherwise grandiose setting, allowing us to imagine their reverence for these sacred objects. The high relief sculpture on display depicts scenes from biblical narratives found in the New Testament. Jesus Christ and his child are prominently featured alongside other figures from early Christian history. This artwork serves as a testament to faith and devotion during that era. Brogi's photographic expertise perfectly captures every intricate detail, emphasizing textures and shadows that bring life to this historical artifact. Through his lens, we are transported into a world where religion intertwines with artistry seamlessly. This print by Alinari not only showcases exceptional craftsmanship but also provides invaluable insight into European culture during ancient times. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, these masterpieces continue to inspire awe and admiration among those who have had the privilege of witnessing them firsthand or through such remarkable photographs like this one
