EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite sculpture "Carita" by Tino di Camaino, created around 1320. Carved from marble and measuring 136x71 cm, this masterpiece is currently housed in the Museo e Galleria Mozzi Bardini in Florence, Italy. Originally part of a larger sculpture group above the door of the Baptistery in Florence, "Carita" embodies the essence of medieval benevolence and nurturing. The figure depicted is a woman who personifies charity and compassion, as she tenderly cares for two infants cradled in her arms. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every curve and expression captured within this timeless piece. The delicate features of both mother and children evoke a sense of warmth and tenderness that transcends time. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the power of nurture and care that has been cherished throughout history. It serves as a poignant reminder that acts of kindness have always played an essential role in our society. Giuliano Valsecchi skillfully captures the beauty and significance of "Carita" through his lens, allowing us to appreciate its magnificence even if we cannot witness it firsthand. This photograph stands as a testament to Italian artistry while reminding us all to embrace our own capacity for compassion and benevolence towards others.
