EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the second panel of the South Doors of the Baptistery of San Giovanni in Florence, Italy. Created by the talented Renaissance sculptor Andrea Pisano in 1336, this high relief sculpture depicts a profound moment from biblical history - Zechariah being struck dumb. Measuring 50x43 cm, this bronze masterpiece is beautifully showcased within a quatrefoil frame. The intricate details and skillful craftsmanship are evident as every contour and expression is brought to life through Pisano's artistry. The scene portrays Zechariah, a prophet from ancient times, experiencing an extraordinary silence imposed upon him by divine intervention. This powerful image evokes a sense of mystery and wonder as we witness his voice taken away in response to his disbelief towards God's promise. Captured by A© Raffaello Bencini with exceptional clarity, this print allows us to appreciate the depth and texture of the sculpture even more intimately. The monochromatic tones add a timeless quality to the artwork while emphasizing its dramatic impact. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing piece, we are reminded not only of Pisano's immense talent but also of our own capacity for doubt and faith. It serves as a poignant reminder that sometimes silence can be just as powerful as words when it comes to conveying profound truths about human nature and spirituality.
