EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the awe-inspiring panel of "Christ in Glory" from the Bronze Doors of San Zeno in Verona. The Verona Cathedral of San Zeno serves as a majestic backdrop for this high relief masterpiece, which belongs to the Romanesque era during the Middle Ages. The image showcases a personification of divinity, with Christ depicted at the center, radiating an ethereal glow. His serene expression and outstretched arms exude a sense of divine power and benevolence. Surrounding him are angelic figures adorned in intricate costumes that reflect the fashion and clothing style prevalent during that period. A striking cross stands tall behind Christ, symbolizing his sacrifice and redemption. Intriguingly, an assortment of medieval instruments and objects can be seen scattered throughout the composition, adding depth to its narrative. Nature intertwines seamlessly with religious symbolism as vegetal elements frame this heavenly scene. Lush foliage surrounds Christ's figure, emphasizing his connection with all living things mentioned in biblical texts from the New Testament. Photographed by Ronchetti Pietro in October 1954, this print immortalizes an artwork dating back to the 12th century AD. Its remarkable preservation allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance within European culture during both millennia. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print from Alinari's collection, we are transported back through time to witness a moment frozen in eternity – a testament to human creativity and devotion spanning centuries.
