EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of the bas-reliefs found on the Marble Desk created by Nicola Pisano between 1266 and 1268. The artwork is located in the Cathedrale Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption, also known as Santa Maria di Assunta or Dome of Siena, in Italy. The Gothic Art and Architecture depicted in this image focuses on two significant biblical scenes: Visitation and Nativity. The craftsmanship of Pisano is evident through his skillful carving of marble, bringing to life various characters from Christian history. In this particular detail, we see Saint Anne, Virgin Mary, Jesus Christ, and other figures beautifully rendered with precision. The scene portrays a momentous visitation between Saint Anne and her daughter Mary during their pregnancies. Nearby stands a donkey symbolizing humility while an ox represents strength. The composition exudes a sense of reverence and devotion as it captures an essential moment in religious history. This piece exemplifies the Gothic style prevalent during the Middle Ages with its attention to detail and symbolic imagery. Luisa Ricciarini's expert photography allows us to appreciate every intricacy present in this remarkable work of art. Through her lens, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the mastery behind these carved reliefs that have stood for centuries within one of Italy's most iconic cathedrals.
