EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the exquisite beauty of the Candelabrum of the Easter candle at the Collegiate Church, also known as Santa Maria della Piet, in Cori. Dating back to the 12th century, this Romanesque masterpiece stands as a testament to the artistic brilliance of the Middle Ages in Europe. The candelabrum itself is a sight to behold. Its intricate design showcases an array of animal figures that are expertly carved into its structure. Among them, a majestic lion takes center stage, exuding strength and power. This representation symbolizes courage and nobility - qualities highly revered during medieval times. Beyond its literal depiction, this artwork holds deeper meaning through allegory and abstract concepts. It serves as a visual metaphor for various virtues valued by society during that era - loyalty, bravery, and righteousness among them. The photographer's lens transports us back in time to approximately 1890 when this image was captured. The monochrome tones add an air of nostalgia while emphasizing every minute detail etched into the candelabrum's surface. Alinari Fratelli has skillfully preserved this historical artifact through their photographic artistry. Their dedication ensures that future generations can appreciate not only the physical beauty but also delve into its symbolic significance within medieval European culture. As we gaze upon this remarkable print today, we are reminded of how art transcends time and space – connecting us with our past while inspiring our present imagination.
