EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Carlo Ponti, we are transported back in time to the late 19th century, where we find ourselves standing before a remarkable engraving of Titian's 'Assumption' in the Frari. The image exudes an air of elegance and reverence as it captures the intricate details and grandeur of this timeless masterpiece. Ponti's expert craftsmanship is evident in his ability to faithfully reproduce every stroke and nuance of Titian's original work. Through his skillful use of engraving techniques, he brings forth a depth and texture that mesmerizes the viewer. Each line seems to dance across the surface, breathing life into Mary as she ascends towards heaven surrounded by a heavenly host. The composition is carefully balanced, with Mary at the center radiating divine light while angels gracefully surround her. The delicate interplay between light and shadow adds drama and intensity to the scene, enhancing its spiritual significance. As we gaze upon this engraving through Ponti's lens, we can almost feel ourselves being drawn into its ethereal realm. It serves as a testament to both Titian's artistic genius and Ponti's exceptional talent for capturing its essence on paper. This photograph was taken during 1860-1870 ca. , providing us with a glimpse into history when photography was still in its infancy but already capable of preserving such exquisite art forms for future generations to appreciate. Carlo Ponti has masterfully immortalized this iconic piece through his lens, allowing us today to marvel at its beauty from afar. This print not only pays homage to one artist’s vision but also celebrates another artist’s ability to capture that vision with utmost precision and finesse.
