EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Ambo and Iconostatis in the Church of S. Maria in Valle Porclaneta, Rosciolo. The image transports us back to a bygone era, capturing the essence of Romanesque architecture during the Middle Ages in Europe. The Ambo, an elevated platform used for reading sacred texts during religious ceremonies, stands proudly at the center of the composition. Its intricate carvings and ornate details are a testament to the skilled craftsmanship of this period. As we gaze upon it, we can almost imagine ancient priests delivering powerful sermons from its steps. Adjacent to the Ambo is the Iconostasis – a beautifully decorated screen adorned with religious icons that separates the sanctuary from other areas of worship. This particular Iconostasis holds significant historical value as it dates back to both First and Second Millennium A. D. , making it an invaluable relic from centuries past. The photograph itself was taken around 1931 by Anderson, who expertly captures every detail with precision and clarity. Through his lens, he immortalizes this remarkable piece of artistry for future generations to appreciate. As we delve deeper into this image's subject matter, we discover its connection to biblical tales from Old Testament lore - specifically Jonah's story. This adds another layer of intrigue as we ponder how these ancient narratives influenced not only religious practices but also artistic expressions throughout history. In conclusion, Alinari presents us with a mesmerizing glimpse into our rich cultural heritage through their reproduction of Anderson's photograph. It serves as a poignant reminder that even after centuries have passed since its creation in XII century AD; this masterpiece continues to inspire awe and admiration today.
