EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the exquisite beauty of a Byzantine marble puteal, housed in the prestigious Correr Museum in Venice, Veneto. The intricate details and high relief of this late Byzantine artwork are truly remarkable, showcasing the artistic brilliance that flourished during Europe's first and second millenniums. Dating back to the 15th century approximately, this magnificent piece stands as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Venice. The puteal features an enchanting lion motif, symbolizing strength and power. As terrestrial mammals and vertebrates roam around it, they add life to this ancient masterpiece. The photograph also highlights elements of fashion and clothing from that era. A mantle cloak drapes gracefully over the puteal's surface, emphasizing its regality and grandeur. Adorned with acanthus leaves - herbaceous plants known for their ornamental value - this vegetal element adds a touch of elegance to the composition. Alinari Fratelli expertly captured this timeless artwork through their lens around 1900 AD. Their photographic skills bring out every intricate detail with precision while maintaining its historical authenticity. As you gaze upon this mesmerizing print, let your imagination transport you back in time when Byzantine art reigned supreme across Europe. Marvel at the craftsmanship displayed on this marble puteal as it stands proudly within one of Italy's most renowned museums.
