The interior, Chapel Nova or St. Brizio Chapel, northern wall: "Pandemonium", detail, 1500-02 (fresco)
6262736 The interior, Chapel Nova or St. Brizio Chapel, northern wall: " Pandemonium", detail, 1500-02 (fresco) by Signorelli, Luca (c.1450-1523); Duomo (Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta), Orvieto, Umbria, Italy; (add.info.: Orvieto, Basilica Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta (o Duomo), interno, Cappella Nova o di San Brizio, parete nord: " Finimondo", affresco di Luca Signorelli, (1500 - 1502). Particolare. A sinistra iniziano gli eventi sovrannaturali, mentre in lontananza guerre e omicidi si moltiplicano. Si tratta dell arrivo di demoni alati mostruosi, dalle cui mani e bocche si sprigiona una pioggia infuocata che investe una moltitudine di persone terrorizzate, che si sta riversando sulla platea fuori dal confine dell arco dipinto. Particolarmente efficace e ben conservato e il groviglio di sette giovani in primo piano, dagli abiti sgargianti, morti o nell atto di soccombere, seguiti da due madri coi figli e un gruppo di giovani e anziani.); Ghigo Roli

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of Luca Signorelli's fresco, "Pandemonium" found on the northern wall of Chapel Nova or St. Brizio Chapel in the Duomo (Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta) in Orvieto, Umbria, Italy. Created between 1500 and 1502, this masterpiece depicts a scene filled with supernatural events and chaos. In the foreground, we witness a group of seven vibrant individuals dressed in colorful attire who are either dead or on the verge of succumbing to their fate. Behind them, two mothers cling to their children while a mix of young and old individuals stand together in fear. The composition skillfully captures their terror as monstrous winged demons descend upon them from above. From these demonic creatures' hands and mouths emerges a torrential downpour of fiery rain that engulfs the multitude below. The impact is intensified by the depiction of wars and murders unfolding in the distance, emphasizing an atmosphere teeming with destruction. What makes this particular detail so remarkable is its exceptional preservation over time. Every brushstroke remains vividly visible even after centuries have passed since its creation. This print allows viewers to appreciate not only Signorelli's artistic prowess but also his ability to convey intense emotions through his work. Ghigo Roli's expert photography brings out every nuance and intricacy present within this section of "Pandemonium" providing art enthusiasts with an opportunity to delve into one small fragment of this monumental fresco that continues to captivate audiences today.
