EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Poliptych representing the Virgin and four saints" a remarkable sculpture created by Jacopo della Quercia. Preserved in the Chapel of Trenta within the Church of St. Frediano, Lucca, this artwork is a true testament to the beauty and craftsmanship of the Late Gothic period. Dating back to 1422, this polyptych holds immense historical significance as it captures the essence of Europe during the Middle Ages. The artist, Della Quercia Jacopo, skillfully crafted each detail with precision and artistry that has stood the test of time. The photograph itself was taken around 1890 by Alinari Fratelli, capturing not only an artistic masterpiece but also providing insight into architectural elements such as arches and building decorations present in Lucca's Church of St. Frediano. The emotional bond between Madonna and child depicted in this sculpture evokes a deep sense of spirituality and reverence for viewers. Each saint portrayed exudes their own unique aura while exemplifying devotion to Christian religion. Through high relief technique, Della Quercia brings life to these representations through intricate details found in their costumes and clothing styles from that era. This polyptych serves as a visual portal into both physiological and psychological aspects prevalent during those times. As we admire this gothic masterpiece frozen in time through photography, we are reminded of its place within history - bridging two millennia together - showcasing how art can transcend generations while leaving an indelible mark on our cultural heritage.
