EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Virtue of Fortitude" sculpture, which adorns the Tomb of Saint Peter in Italy. Created by the talented artist Balduccio Giovanni in 1336, this masterpiece is a testament to both his skill and devotion. Carved from Carrara marble, this stunning female figure represents fortitude and strength. Standing tall against a backdrop of red marble columns and coffered ceilings, she exudes an aura of resilience and determination. The intricate details on her flowing robes and serene expression add depth to her character. Surrounded by other sculptures within the tomb, including a wheel symbolizing martyrdom, this statue stands as a powerful personification of virtue itself. Its placement within the Chiesa di Sant Eusebio in Peglio, Como adds to its significance as it becomes part of an awe-inspiring ensemble. The photo captures every nuance and texture with remarkable clarity thanks to eMauro Ranzani's skilled photography. This image allows viewers to appreciate not only Balduccio Giovanni's artistry but also the timeless beauty that emanates from these ancient marbles. As we gaze upon this photograph print today, we are transported back in time to witness the enduring legacy left behind by these master sculptors. It serves as a reminder that true virtue knows no bounds - even after centuries have passed since its creation.
