EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the lower detail of a remarkable candelabrum found in the Cathedral of S. Cesario in Terracina, Italy. The intricate workmanship is attributed to the renowned Cosmatesque school, known for their exquisite craftsmanship during the Middle Ages. The focal point of this artwork is a spiral column that rises majestically from its base, adorned with elaborate patterns and delicate carvings. Two powerful lions sit on either side of the column, serving as sturdy supports for the candelabrum above them. Their regal presence adds an aura of strength and grandeur to this masterpiece. Dating back to 1241, this extraordinary piece represents both artistic brilliance and religious symbolism. It was created during a time when Europe was undergoing significant cultural transformations in architecture and sculpture.
