EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases the renowned figure of Thomas More, a prominent British statesman and humanist during the 16th century. Painted by Pierre Paul Rubens, also known as Peter Paul or Petrus Paulus Rubens, this artwork is based on Hans Holbein's original painting from the Frick Collection in New York. The image captures More's dignified presence as he gazes directly at the viewer with an air of intelligence and wisdom. His fur hat adds a touch of elegance to his attire, symbolizing his high social status. The meticulous brushstrokes bring out every detail of his facial features, emphasizing his piercing eyes and well-groomed beard. Thomas More was not only a political figure but also a proponent of humanism—a philosophy that emphasized the importance of education and critical thinking. He famously wrote "Utopia" envisioning an ideal society where justice and equality prevailed. Displayed at the Prado Museum in Madrid, Spain, this masterpiece by Rubens pays homage to both More's intellectual legacy and Holbein's artistic genius. The combination of these two great artists creates a harmonious blend between portraiture and historical significance. Giancarlo Costa skillfully captured this remarkable artwork through photography, preserving its essence for generations to come. As we admire this print today, we are reminded of Thomas More's enduring impact on politics, humanism, and our collective pursuit for a better world.
