TABLE III
OPVS MINI- these words are read to the foot of the tabernacle where the holy oils are situated in the passage where the sacristy of St. Maria in Trastevere is located-And these words, as we all see, stray away some doubts about its author's name. Which we do not know if it came to thank his work at the sight of the beholder; the best glue elegance of that neck of the ornaments or exquisite crafting with good design of carved figures and bas-relief. Sure, after being delighted overall, we are delighted to view in its details; grateful to the knight Tosi who has such accuracy in posing the design at which point Mino da Fiesole decided to shape it and make it through marble.
The name of this author makes you want to remind him of when he writes the Vasari: about art instead of squaring the stones with Desiderio of Settignano, young and excellent in sculpture, who begins to make from earth the things that his master had done in marble, and with such skill that he points out which artist would seize him first before putting it to work on things that his art brought him up from. He was so fond and grew affection toward Mino that, when Desire died, he had so much despair that he grew bored with the Sojourn in Florence and abandoned the city and is here in Rome.
Of the few jobs that Mino did in Rome, some were lost; he was willed therefore to know Knight Tosi who had chosen to be a part of this collection of works that survived. And presently treating this tabernacle, we sell it consisting of two pillars, by the Corinthian order, of a simple base decorated with vague foliage and supported by an eagle in flight between two cornucopias of such beautiful sculpture that not by an entablature and a pediment containing elegant ones in the middle of the Holy Spirit that is upon all the work. in the closed compartment of those pillars, five angels stand in various poses, some which sing hosanna and others which support the tabernacle where on top, these words are written- olea sancta-This is located in the middle of two niches put in perspective surmounted by a frame of rich work and flanked on the outside by two candlesticks that each have a prophet explaining laws, in that verse of Ecclesiastics -eum Cibavit vitae pane-and in that left these words taken from the seventh seventieth psalm of David- panem coeli debit eis- That alludes to the mystery of the Eucharist, in which it certainly also helps that the figure of the Savior is standing on the frame above the two aforementioned niches. On the cross from his left and right hand while it's raining blood in a chalice below. A crown of seraphim always acts behind praising with him offerings to the Eternal Father his very blood for the redemption of mankind to him that falls under the Eucharistic species in his redeemed souls to keep you well and is as beautiful as the remade passion in the eyes of God Oh, in those sacred symbols, the cross and the chalice, it contains a great idea, the love of the creator for his creation!
