EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent sculpture "Il Moro" by Nicolas Cordier, also known as Cordieri or Cordigheri called Franciosino. Created in the early 17th century, with the exception of the torso which dates back to Roman times, this masterpiece is made from polychrome marble and colored stones. Displayed at the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, "Il Moro" depicts a Moorish figure exquisitely carved by Cordier's skilled hands. The sculpture stands as a testament to his mastery of artistry and craftsmanship. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring this piece to life, capturing the viewer's attention and imagination. It portrays an individual deeply rooted in Arab civilization and Muslim religion, reflecting both cultural diversity and religious symbolism. Cordier's ability to convey human emotions through stone is evident in every curve and expression on Il Moro's face. This portrait serves as a window into history, allowing us to explore not only artistic techniques but also societal perspectives during that era. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork captured beautifully by Photo Josse, we are transported back to the seventeenth century - a time when art flourished amidst political turmoil and social change. Through its presence at the Louvre Museum today, Il Moro continues to inspire awe and appreciation for centuries-old works of art like no other.
