EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time from the fresco cycle of the Passion, painted by Jacopo Pontormo between 1523 and 1526. The scene depicted is known as the Deposition, showcasing Pontormo's exceptional talent and his contribution to Renaissance art. In this unfinished masterpiece, we witness a solemn gathering surrounding a lifeless body. Mourners are seen grieving with profound sorrow etched on their faces, while delicately draped figures tenderly lower the corpse into its final resting place. The raw emotion portrayed through their gestures and expressions evokes deep empathy within the viewer. Pontormo's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke of this fresco lunette. From the intricate folds of fabric to the masterful play of light and shadow, he creates an atmosphere that draws us into this poignant moment. The location of this artwork adds another layer of significance. Housed within Certosa del Galluzzo (Florence Charterhouse) in Florence, Italy, it stands as a testament to both religious devotion and artistic excellence. Nicolo Orsi Battaglini expertly captures this timeless piece through his lens, preserving its beauty for generations to come. As we gaze upon this photograph print, we are transported back in time to experience firsthand Pontormo's extraordinary skill and his ability to evoke powerful emotions through paint.
