EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Invention of the Holy Cross" takes us back to the Baroque era, specifically the 17th century. Created by Italian artist Giovanni Andrea Ansaldo, this drawing is a true masterpiece that can be found in the Musei di Strada Nuova, Gabinetto Disegni e Stampe di Palazzo Rosso in Genoa, Italy. In this intricate artwork, Ansaldo skillfully captures a pivotal moment in religious history - the discovery of the Holy Cross. The scene is filled with celestial beings as angelic cherubs and putti surround a group of builders who are constructing what appears to be an awe-inspiring crucifixion site. The play of light and shadow through chiaroscuro technique adds depth and drama to this composition. Ansaldo's attention to detail is evident as he meticulously depicts each figure with precision and grace. The use of grids and meticulous design further showcases his mastery over his craft. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported into a world where divine intervention meets human craftsmanship. It serves as a reminder of faith's enduring power throughout history. Luisa Ricciarini has expertly captured every nuance of Ansaldo's original work through her lens, preserving its beauty for generations to come.
