EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite fresco painting of "Saint Frances of Rome" by Antoniazzo Romano. The artwork, created in 1468, beautifully captures the essence and devotion of this revered female saint. In this particular scene, Saint Frances is depicted returning from St Paul's Basilica on June 28th, 1438. As she finds herself overwhelmed with ecstasy, she spontaneously kneels down beside a flowing stream. However, what makes this moment truly miraculous is that despite kneeling in water, her clothes remain perfectly dry. The artist skillfully portrays every intricate detail of Saint Frances' expression and posture as she experiences this divine encounter. Her face radiates serenity and spiritual enlightenment while her body language conveys reverence and surrender to a higher power. Through Romano's masterful use of colors and brushstrokes characteristic of the Renaissance period, he brings forth a sense of ethereal beauty to the mural. This delicate balance between realism and spirituality creates an awe-inspiring atmosphere around Saint Frances. As we gaze upon this remarkable print captured by Luisa Ricciarini, we are transported back in time to witness a profound moment in religious history. It serves as a reminder not only of Saint Frances' unwavering faith but also of the enduring power art has to evoke emotions and connect us with our spiritual selves.
