EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate marble relief of Aquarius, from the Chapel of the Planets by Agostino di Duccio in Rimini, Italy. Dating back to around 1450 during the Renaissance period, this piece showcases the artistry and craftsmanship of that time.
Aquarius, depicted as a water bearer pouring water from a jug, is one of the twelve signs of the zodiac. In astrology, Aquarians are known for their progressive thinking, humanitarianism, and independence. This relief beautifully captures these characteristics with its detailed depiction of a figure holding a vessel aloft.
The Tempio Malatestiano in Rimini serves as a backdrop for this exquisite work of art. The chapel's architecture adds to the overall grandeur and historical significance of this piece.
Photographed by Raffaello Bencini, this image brings out every detail and nuance of Agostino di Duccio's masterpiece. The play of light and shadow on the marble surface enhances its depth and texture.
Whether you're an astrology enthusiast or simply appreciate fine art from the Renaissance era, this print is sure to captivate your imagination. It serves as a timeless reminder of humanity's fascination with celestial bodies and our quest for understanding our place in the universe.
