In the first millennium, an impressive architectural structure welcomed readers of the Christian word into city cathedrals. The ancients had a name for it: the ‘ambo’. It was a structure that soared upwards, placed at a point where the voice sounded clearer, to which the congregation would raise their faces, turn their eyes and incline their ears. Architecture, like painting and sculpture, can meet this need and design unique works. Patrons, artists and craftsmen strove to make the ambo an integral part of the liturgical celebration… astounding in its beauty, inexhaustible in its narration. To tell the story of the art and function of this artefact, our starting point is the book Ancient Italian Ambos, Masterpieces of Sculpture, by Antonio Bonelli, with a series of Indian ink drawings by Nicoletta Reinach Astori. Surprisingly, although the authors amassed an impressive photographic archive, there are no photographs in the book. In this way, using words and drawings instead of photographs, the authors prick our curiosity as they accompany us on our journey.
