EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate details of Buglioni's "The Seven Works of Mercy, feeding the Hungry" terracotta relief. Created between 1526 and 1528, this masterpiece is housed in the Ospedale del Ceppo in Pistoia, Italy. In this particular detail, we witness an act of generosity as poor individuals receive food from a charitable figure. The polychrome terracotta brings life to the scene, showcasing Buglioni's mastery in capturing human emotion and conveying a sense of empathy towards those less fortunate. The composition exudes a sense of humility and compassion that resonates with viewers across time. The delicate carving on wooden furniture adds to the authenticity and realism of the scene, transporting us back to Renaissance-era Italy. Buglioni's work not only showcases his artistic skill but also serves as a reminder of the importance of charity and kindness within Christian teachings. It highlights themes such as poverty, hunger, and moral virtue while emphasizing the role that religious orders played in providing for those in need during this period. Luisa Ricciarini's expert photography allows us to appreciate every intricate detail captured within this low Terracotta relief. Through her lens, we are able to experience both the beauty and significance behind Buglioni's creation – reminding us that art has always been a powerful medium for storytelling throughout history.
