EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail from the San Martino polyptych, created by the renowned artist Carlo Crivelli in the 15th century. The focal point of this particular section is St. James, also known as St. James the Greater, depicted with exquisite precision and skill. In this stunning portrayal, St. James stands tall and dignified, holding a book in his hands that symbolizes his role as one of Jesus' closest disciples. As a patron saint of pilgrims, he carries a wallet on his belt to represent their journey towards spiritual enlightenment. A staff rests beside him, serving as both support for weary travelers and an emblem of authority bestowed upon him by Christ himself. Adorning his robe are delicate scallop shells - an iconic motif associated with St. James due to their significance in medieval pilgrimage routes leading to Santiago de Compostela. The rich colors and intricate details captured in this tempera on panel masterpiece come alive through the lens of photographer Nicolo Orsi Battaglini. This image not only captures Crivelli's artistic brilliance but also invites viewers into a world where faith intertwines with artistry. As we gaze at this remarkable print, we are transported back in time to witness the devotion and reverence inspired by saints like St. James during the Italian Renaissance period—a testament to both human creativity and spirituality preserved for generations to come.
