EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing detail from "The Legend of the True Cross, the Victory of Constantine at the Battle of the Milvian Bridge" a renowned fresco completed in 1464 by Piero della Francesca. The artwork is housed in the Basilica San Francesco, located in Arezzo, Tuscany, Italy. In this particular section of the fresco, we see a soldier blowing a trumpet with great intensity and purpose. His profile portrait showcases his determination and strength as he plays an integral role in this historical battle. The Renaissance era comes to life through every brushstroke captured by A© Raffaello Bencini's lens. "The Legend of the True Cross" depicts Emperor Constantine's victory at the Battle of Milvian Bridge, which took place in Rome during 312 AD. This momentous event marked a turning point for Christianity as it led to Constantine's conversion and subsequent legalization of Christianity within the Roman Empire.

The soldier blowing his trumpet symbolizes triumph and heralds Constantine's victorious path towards embracing Christianity. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness history unfolding before our eyes. It serves as a reminder that art has an incredible power to capture significant moments and preserve them for generations to come.
