EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Lunette of the central portal of Pistoia's Cathedral, a masterpiece created by Andrea della Robbia. The artwork itself depicts the serene image of the Virgin with Child and Angels, emanating an aura of divine grace. Crafted during the Early Renaissance period, this bas-relief sculpture is a testament to Della Robbia's exceptional talent and skill. The intricate terracotta work captures every delicate detail, from the flowing garments worn by the figures to their angelic expressions. The artist's expertise in creating lifelike representations is evident in this remarkable piece. Dating back to approximately 1505, this stunning artwork holds immense historical significance. It reflects both Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles that were prevalent in Europe during that era. Its presence within Pistoia Cathedral adds to its cultural importance as it represents a fusion of religious devotion and artistic excellence. The photograph itself was taken around 1890 by Brogi from Alinari, capturing not only the beauty of Della Robbia's creation but also preserving it for future generations to admire. This visual record allows us to appreciate the craftsmanship and symbolism embedded within each element - from angels hovering above to Christ child being crowned. The combination of religious subject matter, meticulous detailing, and expert execution makes this artwork truly awe-inspiring. It serves as a reminder of how art can transcend time and connect us with centuries-old traditions while still evoking profound emotions today.
