EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the exquisite Candlestick by Andrea Briosco, also known as Riccio, for the altar in the Basilica of Sant'Antonio in Padua. The candlestick stands tall and proud, showcasing the mastery of High Renaissance artistry. Dating back to around 1507-1515, this remarkable artwork is a testament to Briosco's skill and creativity. The intricate details are beautifully captured in this vintage print from 1910. Every curve and contour of the candlestick is highlighted with precision, revealing an extraordinary level of craftsmanship. The candlestick itself is adorned with elements that reflect both Renaissance and Baroque styles. From delicate putti figures to literary references depicted through festoons and vegetal compositions, it embodies the artistic influences prevalent during that period in Europe. As you gaze at this photograph, you can't help but be transported back in time to witness firsthand the grandeur of religious art during the First and Second Millennium A. D. It serves as a reminder of how art has evolved throughout history while still maintaining its timeless beauty. This Alinari print allows us to appreciate not only Briosco's talent but also Anderson's keen eye for capturing such an exceptional piece. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply intrigued by historical artifacts, this photograph invites you into a world where beauty meets spirituality – inside one of Italy's most revered basilicas: Sant'Antonio in Padua.
