EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite fresco titled "L'apotre Bartholome et le prophete Joel - Bartholomew the Apostle and the Prophet Joel" by Pinturicchio, Bernardino di Betto. Created between 1492 and 1495, this masterpiece can be found in the Apostolic Palace of Vatican City. The painting depicts two significant figures from biblical history: Bartholomew the Apostle and the Prophet Joel. With vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail, Pinturicchio brings these revered individuals to life on a grand scale. The saintly aura surrounding them emphasizes their sacred status within Christian religion. As one gazes upon this artwork, they are transported back to Italy during the Quattrocento period of Renaissance art. The skillful brushwork and harmonious color palette exemplify Pinturicchio's mastery as an artist. Bartholomew is portrayed as a martyr with his distinct aureola shining above him, symbolizing his devotion to spreading Christianity. Standing beside him is the Prophet Joel, known for his prophecies in the Old Testament. This piece not only serves as a testament to religious faith but also highlights Pinturicchio's role as an employer and patron of arts during that era. It stands as a reminder of how art has been used throughout history to convey stories from biblical texts. With its rich historical significance and artistic brilliance, this fresco continues to captivate viewers even today.
