EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent North Face of the Santuario de Nossa Senhora dos Remedios obelisk in Lamego, Portugal. Carved out of granite by the skilled Portuguese School in the 18th century, this architectural masterpiece is a true testament to Baroque artistry. Designed by renowned architect Nicolau Nasoni, every intricate detail of this ornate structure tells a story. From its symbolic representation of pagan mythology to its heraldic symbols and scrollwork, it exudes an air of grandeur and sophistication. Atop the obelisk, we see a sun with a face radiating rays of light, symbolizing power and glory. This celestial motif is further enhanced by the presence of a star representing the pole star. The combination creates an enchanting spectacle that captures both classical and rococo influences. The Santuario de Nossa Senhora dos Remedios serves as not only a religious sanctuary but also as an artistic marvel. Its decorative scrolls and sculptural supports add depth and dimension to its already impressive architecture. As you gaze upon this photograph, you can't help but be awestruck by the sheer beauty and craftsmanship on display. It transports you back in time to an era where art was revered above all else. A true treasure from Portugal's rich cultural heritage, this image invites us to appreciate both its historical significance and aesthetic brilliance.
