EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing detail of the fresco "Christ, detail of the Madonna and Child with angels Raffael and Gabriel" by an anonymous Italian School artist from the 13th century. The artwork is located in the rupestrian church of Madonna della Croce, nestled on the outskirts of Matera, Italy. In this particular section of the fresco, we see Christ depicted alongside his mother Mary and two angelic figures - Raffael and Gabriel. The artist skillfully portrays Christ as a central figure, drawing attention to his serene presence amidst divine beings. His hand is delicately raised in blessing or perhaps in a gesture inviting viewers into his sacred realm. The use of vibrant colors and intricate details showcases the mastery of mural painting during this early Middle Ages period. The textile draping over Christ's body adds depth to the composition while emphasizing his role as both human and divine. This print not only highlights artistic excellence but also offers insight into religious iconography prevalent during that time. It serves as a testament to Europe's rich cultural heritage and its enduring influence on fashion, clothing, biblical narratives, and applied arts. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured this momentous artwork through Luciano Pedicini's lens for Alinari Archives in Florence. This remarkable piece invites us to appreciate its beauty while contemplating themes of spirituality and artistry intertwined throughout history.
