EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate details of The Crab (Cancer) symbol above an aerial view of Rimini, Italy. Created by Agostino di Duccio in the 15th century, this relief is part of a series depicting planetary symbols and zodiac signs in the Chapel of the Planets at Tempio Malatestiano.
The juxtaposition of the celestial symbol with a terrestrial landscape creates a unique and captivating image that speaks to both astrology and astronomy. The delicate craftsmanship of di Duccio's work is evident in every curve and line, showcasing his skill as a Renaissance artist.
The aerial view of Rimini adds another layer to this piece, showing the city from above with its buildings, river Marecchia, and even sailing boats dotting the landscape. It provides a sense of scale and context to The Crab hovering above it all.
As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to when astrology played a significant role in people's lives. The combination of artistry and symbolism makes this piece not only visually striking but also intellectually stimulating. It serves as a reminder of our connection to both the heavens above and the earth below.
