EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite sculpture, "The Virgin and Child" created by Jacopo Tatti dit Sansovino during the Renaissance period. Crafted from terracotta and adorned with gilded and painted details, this masterpiece was completed between 1537 and 1546. Located in The Loggetta at Piazza San Marco in Venice, Italy, this sculpture is a testament to Sansovino's exceptional skill as an artist. The tender portrayal of the Virgin Mary cradling baby Jesus evokes a sense of maternal love and devotion that transcends time. The intricate carving on the terracotta surface brings to life biblical characters from the Christian faith. This artwork serves as a visual representation of religious stories found within the Bible, reminding viewers of their spiritual beliefs. Luisa Ricciarini expertly captures every delicate detail through her lens, allowing us to appreciate this magnificent work of art even if we cannot witness it firsthand. Her photograph preserves not only Sansovino's craftsmanship but also highlights the significance of Italian Renaissance art in history. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when artists like Sansovino pushed boundaries and brought divine beauty into our world. It serves as a reminder that art has always been an integral part of human expression and spirituality throughout centuries past.
