Reliëf van een deur van het Baptisterium te Florence door Lorenzo Ghiberti, voorstellend een marterachtige die op een vogel jaagt c. 1875 - 1900

This anonymous photograph, taken between 1875 and 1900, depicts a detail from the Gates of Paradise, a set of bronze doors created by Lorenzo Ghiberti for the Baptistery of Florence. The photograph highlights a panel featuring a weasel pursuing a bird, meticulously sculpted in high relief. This detail is characteristic of Ghiberti’s Renaissance style, which combined classical elements with naturalism, contributing to the overall narrative and visual impact of the Gates.
