EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the exquisite beauty of a bust depicting St. Clare, created by the renowned artist Tullio Lombardo. The bust is prominently displayed on the balustrade of the church of Santa Maria dei Miracoli in Venice, Italy. Dating back to the late 15th century, this artwork showcases Lombardo's mastery of early Renaissance, Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods. Its intricate details and lifelike features are a testament to his skill as a sculptor. St. Clare herself is depicted with grace and serenity, her eyes gazing into eternity with unwavering faith. She wears traditional religious clothing that reflects both fashion trends of the time and her devout Christian beliefs as a nun. The photograph was taken between 1920-1930 by Alinari Fratelli, capturing not only the timeless beauty of Lombardo's sculpture but also providing us with a glimpse into history during that period. As we admire this image today, it serves as a reminder of Europe's rich artistic heritage from both medieval times through to the Renaissance era. It transports us back in time to an age where craftsmanship was revered and art served as a powerful means of communication. Whether one holds religious beliefs or not, there is no denying the profound impact that artworks like this have had on our cultural landscape throughout history. This photograph allows us to appreciate St. Clare's significance within Christianity while also celebrating Tullio Lombardo's contribution to European art during his lifetime.
