EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent pulpit of the cathedral of San Michele in Casertavecchia, located in the province of Caserta, Italy. The pulpit, which was rebuilt during the seventeenth century using pieces from ancient thirteenth-century ambos, stands as a testament to the rich history and architectural prowess of this sacred space. The intricate craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident in every aspect of this Gothic masterpiece. The pulpit's design reflects elements from both the Middle Ages and Europe's first and second millenniums, creating a harmonious blend of artistic styles that transport viewers back in time. Dating back to the 13th century, these ancient pieces were carefully incorporated into the reconstruction process, preserving their historical significance while breathing new life into them. This fusion between old and new is beautifully captured by Alinari Fratelli's lens. The photograph itself was taken around 1920-1930 when Alinari expertly framed this remarkable artwork within his camera's viewfinder. Through his lens, we can appreciate not only its grandeur but also its delicate details – from intricately carved sculptures to majestic capitals adorning each column. This image serves as a reminder that art transcends time; it connects us with our past while inspiring future generations. It invites us to marvel at human ingenuity and creativity throughout different eras. Alinari Fratelli has masterfully captured this timeless piece of furniture for sacred spaces—a true treasure that continues to inspire awe today. Let it serve as a window into an era long gone yet still alive through its enduring beauty.
