EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable representation of Saint Dominica de Guzman, the revered founder of the Dominican Order. Painted by Pedro Berruguete in the 15th century, this artwork measures 1.77x0.9 meters and is currently housed in the prestigious Prado Museum in Madrid. Berruguete's skillful brushstrokes bring to life the spiritual essence of Saint Dominica de Guzman, capturing her devout piety and unwavering dedication to her religious calling. The painting depicts her holding a book, symbolizing her profound knowledge and commitment to spreading Christian teachings. The artist masterfully portrays both light and darkness within this composition. A halo surrounds Saint Dominica's head, representing divine enlightenment and grace bestowed upon her by God. However, lurking behind her is an ominous figure—the devil himself—symbolizing the constant battle between good and evil that she faced during her lifetime. Saint Dominic's influence on Christianity cannot be overstated; he established one of the most significant religious orders in history—the Dominican Order—which continues to thrive today. This portrait serves as a testament to his enduring legacy and inspires viewers with its rich symbolism and artistic brilliance. As we gaze upon this extraordinary work of art captured beautifully by Photo Josse, we are reminded of Saint Dominica de Guzman's unwavering faith, resilience against temptation, and tireless efforts towards spreading God's love throughout Christendom.
