EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Funerary monument of Cardinal Forteguerri" by Andrea del Verrocchio. The marble sculpture, located in the Duomo of Pistoia, Tuscany, Italy, is a testament to the artist's mastery and attention to detail. In this image, we see a bust of Cardinal Niccolo Forteguerra, an influential figure in Italian history. His mournful expression reflects the sadness and grief felt upon his passing. Delicate wings sprout from his shoulders, symbolizing his angelic virtue and heavenly existence. The sculpture is adorned with various allegorical figures representing virtues such as hope, faith, charity, and blessing. Cherubs surround the cardinal's portrait with their cherubic presence adding an ethereal touch to the composition. Verrocchio's talent shines through in every aspect of this Renaissance masterpiece. From intricate facial features to meticulously carved robes and gestures that convey deep emotion - it is truly a work of art that captures both beauty and sorrow. As we gaze upon this photograph print by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to appreciate not only Verrocchio's artistic genius but also pay homage to Cardinal Forteguerra's significant contributions during his lifetime.
