EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a stone statue of an apostle, skillfully sculpted for the renowned Sainte Chapelle in Paris. Preserved within the Muse National du Moyen ge, Thermes et htel de Cluny, this exquisite artwork stands as a testament to the rich history and artistic prowess of the Middle Ages. The apostle's figure emanates a sense of sublime spirituality, with its delicate features and graceful pose.

His meticulously carved hairdo reflects the fashion trends prevalent during that era, adding authenticity to this remarkable piece. As we gaze upon this sculpture frozen in time, it transports us back to Europe's first and second millenniums A. D. , when Gothic art reigned supreme. The intricate details etched into every crevice of his face speak volumes about the craftsmanship involved in creating such masterpieces during those times. Though devoid of color, this monochromatic image allows us to appreciate the raw beauty inherent in stone sculptures from centuries past. It serves as a poignant reminder of how art can transcend time and connect us with our ancestors' beliefs and traditions. Photographed by Alinari between 1920-1930 ca. , this print not only captures a moment but also immortalizes an artwork created between 1241-1248.
