EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the magnificent Portal of the Castiglione Olona Collegiate Church, showcasing its rich historical and artistic significance. The focal point of this image is the lunette, adorned with intricate depictions of the Madonna with Child, saints, and Cardinal Branda Castiglioni on his knees. The church's portal represents a harmonious blend of Early Renaissance, Renaissance, and Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods that have shaped Europe throughout the first and second millenniums A. D. The photograph itself was taken around 1900 while the artwork it portrays dates back to 1428. Within this composition lies an allegory filled with abstract concepts and symbols. An eagle symbolizing an evangelist stands alongside various figures including angels, persons, and animals like bulls. These representations bring to life religious subjects such as Madonna and child with saints while also exploring different aspects of Virgin Mary's existence. The attire worn by Cardinal Branda Castiglioni showcases fashion trends from early Renaissance times when clergy members held significant influence within Christian religion. Their role as bishops is emphasized in this portrayal. Brogi's masterful photography allows us to appreciate every intricate detail captured in this print without mentioning any commercial use associated with it. Through his lens, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in European history where biblical narratives from the New Testament were brought to life through artistry influenced by Renaissance Baroque styles. In summary, this remarkable print immortalizes a timeless piece of art found at the Portal of Castiglione Olona Collegiate Church. It serves as a testament to Europe's cultural heritage during different historical periods while highlighting religious symbolism intertwined within its design.
