EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 12th century baptismal font, housed within the hallowed halls of the Basilica di San Frediano in Lucca, Italy, is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Europe's Middle Ages. Carved from an age-old stone, the font is adorned with intricate reliefs that narrate the life of Moses, a significant figure from the Old Testament of the Bible. The most captivating relief on this font depicts Moses at the Burning Bush, an iconic biblical scene where Moses encounters God in the form of a burning bush. According to the story, God called upon Moses to lead the Israelites out of Egyptian slavery, an instruction he received while tending to his flock near Mount Horeb. Master Roberto, a renowned artist of the Romanesque period, is believed to have created these masterpieces. The details on the font are remarkable, with Moses shown in deep contemplation as he listens to God's voice from the burning bush. The scene is filled with a sense of awe and reverence, reflecting the deep spiritual connection between the people of the time and their faith. The font, also known as a lustrale or fonte, was used for baptisms in the basilica. The baptismal ritual was a significant moment in the life of a Christian, marking their entry into the faith. The font's intricate carvings would have served as a powerful reminder of the stories and teachings from the Bible, providing a spiritual connection for the newly baptized. This font, a relic from the past, continues to captivate and inspire visitors to the Basilica di San Frediano, offering a glimpse into the rich artistic and spiritual heritage of the Middle Ages.
