EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the magnificent Tomb of Agnese and Clemenza di Durazzo, a masterpiece by Antonio Baboccio, nestled inside the historic Church of Saint Clare in Naples. Dating back to the Middle Ages, this awe-inspiring tomb is an exquisite example of European art from the first and second millennium A. D. The photograph was taken between 1879 and 1910, while the artwork itself was created between 1380 and 1435. Antonio Baboccio's skillful craftsmanship is evident in every intricate detail of this remarkable piece. The tomb features inscriptions, writings, instruments, and symbols that communicate profound meanings. A female figure stands as an allegory for an abstract concept while a majestic lion symbolizes terrestrial power. The composition also includes caryatids - human figures serving as architectural supports - along with other building elements that enhance its grandeur. Adorned with delicate decorations and sections characteristic of medieval architecture, this sepulchre exudes Christian symbolism. Within its structure lies an angelic figure alongside Madonna and Child representations depicting scenes from the life of Christ. Low reliefs beautifully depict various aspects of Virgin Mary's life while sculptures adorn a baldachin above a noble sarcophagus. This work not only showcases artistic excellence but also reflects the nobility associated with those interred within it during medieval times. As we delve into Europe's rich history through this Bible New Testament-inspired masterpiece spanning centuries, we are reminded of its enduring significance throughout the first and second millenniums. Captured by Brogi from Alinari using his expert lensmanship skills, this print allows us to appreciate both the timeless beauty of Baboccio's creation as well as marvel at how it has stood strong against time itself.
