EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable miniature glass blower, depicted in the 9th-century manuscript "De Universo" by Rabanus Maurus Magnentius. The manuscript, also known as "De rerum naturis" offers insights into the nature of things and was created during the Middle Ages. The image transports us back in time to witness the daily life of a skilled craftsman at work. With intense focus and precision, the glass blower tends to his craft, standing before an oven that radiates warmth and illuminates his surroundings. His hands deftly maneuver an instrument with a long handle, shaping molten glass into exquisite forms. This artwork not only captures the laborious process of manufacturing technology during this era but also highlights humanity's ingenuity in harnessing natural elements like fire to create beautiful objects. It serves as a testament to the craftsmanship prevalent during medieval times. Luisa Ricciarini skillfully brings this historical scene to life through her photographic expertise.
