EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the exquisite beauty of the Tomb of Pietro da Noceto, a masterpiece created by Matteo Civitali in St. Martin's Cathedral, Lucca. The tomb, dating back to 1472 during the Early Renaissance period, stands as a testament to the artistic brilliance of its creator. In this image, we see the intricate details and craftsmanship that went into crafting this magnificent artwork. The tomb is adorned with various elements representing different concepts and symbols from literature and fiction. A prominent feature is an allegorical representation of death, depicted through a male figure lying peacefully on his bed surrounded by lush vegetation. The presence of Madonna and Child adds a touch of spirituality to the composition, symbolizing life and representations of the Virgin Mary. A fanciful griffin can also be seen perched atop one corner of the tomb, adding an element of mystery and intrigue. Matteo Civitali's expertise shines through in every aspect of this artwork. His attention to detail is evident in each delicate vegetal element or composition adorning the tomb's surface. The festooned decorations further enhance its grandeur while paying homage to famous persons who have left their mark on history. This photograph was taken around 1900 by Brogi from Alinari, capturing not only the timeless beauty but also providing us with valuable insight into how it appeared at that time. It serves as a window into Europe's rich cultural heritage during both Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods spanning over two millennia. Overall, this print invites viewers to appreciate Civitali's masterful creation while immersing themselves in centuries-old artistry that continues to inspire awe today.
