Florentine School Francis Friar Gesturing Habit Stigmata Wounds Halo Monks
EDITORS COMMENTS
This fresco, titled "Virgin and Child, Angels and St. Francis of Assisi" is a masterpiece by the renowned Italian artist Cimabue (Cenni di Pepo). The artwork can be found in the Lower Church of San Francesco in Assisi, Italy. The central focus of this fresco is the tender depiction of the Virgin Mary cradling baby Jesus on her lap. Surrounding them are a group of ethereal angels, their delicate wings spread wide as they gaze adoringly at the divine mother and child. On one side stands St. Francis of Assisi, known for his deep devotion to God and his embodiment of humility. St. Francis is depicted with stigmata wounds on his hands and feet, symbolizing his connection to Christ's suffering during crucifixion. Dressed in a humble monk's habit with a halo above his head, he kneels before Mary and Jesus in prayerful reverence. This remarkable piece showcases Cimabue's mastery over composition and color palette while exemplifying elements from the Florentine school of art. The artist's attention to detail brings each figure to life - from their flowing robes to their expressive gestures. As we admire this print captured by Fine Art Finder, we are transported back in time to witness an intimate moment between heaven and earth – where divinity meets humanity through love, faith, and artistic brilliance.
