EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the iconic moment of St Francis of Assisi receiving the stigmata, depicted in a tempera on wood panel painting by Antoniazzo Romano. The artwork, housed in the Vatican Museums and Galleries in Vatican City, showcases the incredible talent and devotion of this Italian artist from the late 15th century. St Francis of Assisi is known for his deep connection with nature and his profound spirituality. In this image, we witness him experiencing a divine encounter as he receives the wounds resembling those suffered by Jesus Christ during his crucifixion - an event known as "the stigmata". This powerful depiction evokes both awe and reverence for St Francis' unwavering faith. The meticulous brushwork and vibrant colors bring to life every detail of this sacred scene. The viewer can almost feel the intensity radiating from St Francis' face as he surrenders himself completely to God's will. It is a testament to Romano's skill that such emotion can be conveyed through paint on wood. As we contemplate this photograph, we are reminded not only of St Francis' extraordinary spiritual journey but also of Italy's rich artistic heritage. This piece exemplifies how art has long been intertwined with religion in European culture, serving as a medium for expressing devotion and exploring profound theological concepts. Bridgeman Images has masterfully captured this timeless masterpiece so that it may continue to inspire viewers around the world with its beauty and spiritual significance.
