EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring beauty of the "Portal in Istrian stone" at the Church of Sant'Agostino in Recanati. Designed by Giuliano da Maiano and crafted by Giovanni di Fiandra during the Renaissance period, this architectural masterpiece is a testament to human creativity and devotion. The intricate details of this portal transport us back in time to an era when art and architecture were celebrated as expressions of faith and cultural identity. The fusion of High Renaissance, Renaissance-Baroque styles, and periods showcased here reflects Europe's rich artistic heritage. As we gaze upon this photograph, our eyes are drawn to the exquisite vegetal elements adorning the entrance. Lush foliage intertwines with delicate festoons, creating a harmonious composition that symbolizes growth, life, and renewal – all central themes within Christian religion. The figure depicted on this portal is none other than St. Augustine himself – a revered saint known for his theological contributions during the first millennium A. D. His presence adds a spiritual dimension to this artwork while also reminding us of its historical significance. Dating back to 1484, it is remarkable how well-preserved this piece remains even after centuries have passed. Thanks to Alinari Fratelli's skillful photography around 1915-1920 ca. , we can now appreciate every minute detail from afar. This print serves as a visual bridge connecting different epochs; it allows us to marvel at both ancient craftsmanship and modern technology's ability to capture its essence faithfully. Let it inspire you with its timeless beauty and remind you of humanity's enduring pursuit of artistic excellence throughout history.
