EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "MFC-F-000699-0000" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate details of a tabernacle created by the renowned artist Luca della Robbia. The photograph showcases a close-up view of this masterpiece housed in the Cappella Canigiani within the historic Santa Croce in Florence. Captured around 1890-1900, this image allows us to appreciate the remarkable craftsmanship and artistic prowess of Andrea Della Robbia, who continued his family's legacy after Luca's passing. Dating back to 1490-1495, this exquisite tabernacle stands as a testament to the rich cultural heritage that thrives within Florence. The photograph reveals an array of fascinating elements meticulously sculpted by Della Robbia. Among them are fish, vertebrates, animals, men, and people – all intricately arranged in harmonious composition. These figures seem to come alive through their delicate expressions and detailed costumes from that period. Notably present is an angelic figure emanating grace and serenity amidst its surroundings. This celestial being adds an ethereal touch to the artwork while symbolizing divine intervention or protection as depicted in biblical stories from the Old Testament. Brogi (attributed to) skillfully captures every nuance of this awe-inspiring tabernacle with his lens. His expertise brings out each minute detail with precision and clarity while preserving its historical significance for generations to come. As we gaze upon this extraordinary print from Alinari, we are transported back in time – immersed in both religious devotion and artistic brilliance that have defined Florence throughout history. It serves as a powerful reminder of how art can transcend time and connect us deeply with our cultural roots.
