EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from c1900 showcases the esteemed Italian poets of the 14th and 16th century, Dante Alighieri and Torquato Tasso. The image is part of a French advertising campaign for Liebig, an extract of meat product popular during that era. Despite its commercial origins, this photograph beautifully captures the essence of these literary giants. Dante Alighieri, renowned for his epic poem "Divine Comedy" stands tall in the portrait with an air of wisdom and introspection. His contribution to Italian literature cannot be overstated as he paved the way for future generations with his profound insights into human nature and spirituality. Beside him stands Torquato Tasso, a prominent figure in Renaissance poetry known for his masterpiece "Jerusalem Delivered". With a contemplative expression on his face, Tasso exudes creativity and imagination, embodying the spirit of artistic brilliance. The color palette chosen for this advertisement adds vibrancy to their portraits while emphasizing their significance in Italian culture. This print serves as a visual testament to Italy's rich heritage in both literature and culinary traditions. Although originally intended as an advertisement promoting canned food products by Baron Justus Freiherr von Liebig's company (not mentioned here), this particular photo transcends its commercial purpose. It encapsulates not only the beauty of art but also pays homage to two influential figures who have left an indelible mark on Italy's cultural landscape.
