EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Statue of St Peter, located in St Peter's Basilica, Rome, Italy. Created by renowned photographers Underwood & Underwood, this stereoscopic card detail captures the intricate details of this bronze statue that has been attributed to the 13th-century sculptor Arnolfo di Cambio. The statue depicts St Peter Enthroned, a powerful symbol of Christianity and Catholicism. Scholars have debated its origin, with some suggesting it dates back to the 5th century. The image beautifully portrays St Peter seated on his throne, exuding an aura of authority and holiness. His gesture of blessing adds a sense of warmth and compassion to his portrayal. The halo above his head signifies his saintly status as one of Jesus Christ's apostles - Simon Cephas or Simon Peter. This iconic representation is set against the grandeur of St Peter's Basilica's interior, emphasizing its significance within Roman Catholicism. As we gaze at this monochrome portrait captured during the 19th century by Underwood & Underwood for The Print Collector collection, we are transported back in time to witness a remarkable piece of medieval artistry. The attention to detail in every aspect - from the elaborate throne to the delicate facial features - is truly awe-inspiring. This print serves as a testament not only to religious devotion but also as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage. It invites us to appreciate both artistic craftsmanship and spiritual reverence while contemplating centuries-old traditions that continue to shape our world today.
