EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the awe-inspiring mosaic of St. Philip and St. James, found within the grandeur of St. Mark's Basilica in Venice. Steeped in history and religious significance, this artwork transports us back to the Middle Ages, offering a glimpse into Europe's rich cultural tapestry during the first and second millennium A. D. The photograph itself was captured between 1920-1930, allowing us to appreciate both its timeless beauty and historical context. The mosaic, dating back to the XIII century, is a testament to the enduring legacy of faith and devotion that has permeated through generations. Intricate details abound as we observe these two apostles depicted with utmost reverence. Their faces bear expressions of wisdom and piety while holding an inscription or writing instrument—a symbol of their role as messengers spreading divine teachings.

This scene immortalizes their martyrdom—an ultimate sacrifice made during the tumultuous times of the Middle Ages. Through Alinari Fratelli's lens, this print captures not only a work of art but also serves as a visual time capsule connecting past eras with our present-day understanding of spirituality and history. Let this remarkable image transport you to an era where faith was at once personal yet shared by millions across Europe—the Bible's New Testament intertwining with human lives through figures like St. James the Elder and Philip.
