EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the exquisite beauty of the Ciborium of the altar with fragments of ancient ruins, located in the magnificent Cathedral of S. Cesario in Terracina. The Ciborium, dating back to the Middle Ages (XI-XII sec), stands as a testament to Europe's rich history spanning over a millennium. The photograph showcases intricate details and craftsmanship that make this piece truly remarkable. Adorned with delicate sculptures and adorned capitals, it is evident that every element was carefully designed to create an atmosphere of reverence within sacred spaces. What makes this particular artwork even more intriguing is its incorporation of fragments from ancient ruins. These remnants serve as a reminder of Terracina's storied past, bridging together different eras and civilizations into one cohesive masterpiece. The photographer Brogi skillfully captures not only the grandeur but also the serenity emanating from this extraordinary work. The play between light and shadow adds depth to each column, highlighting their weathered surfaces while preserving their timeless allure. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, immersing ourselves in centuries-old traditions and customs. It serves as a visual representation of our collective heritage – a tangible connection between past generations and present-day observers. This print by Alinari invites us to appreciate both artistry and history simultaneously. It reminds us that behind every artifact lies countless stories waiting to be discovered; tales woven by human hands across generations for future ones to unravel.
