EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 18th century chiaroscuro woodcut print, titled "Saint John the Evangelist" by English artist John Skippe, showcases the revered apostle in deep contemplation as he pens the apocalyptic Book of Revelation. The monochrome composition, executed in light and dark olive green tones, masterfully employs the technique of chiaroscuro, highlighting the intricate details of Saint John's flowing robes and the eagle, a symbol of his divine revelation, perched beside him. The print is reminiscent of the works of renowned Renaissance artists such as Francesco Mazzola, also known as Parmigianino, and his teacher Girolamo Francesco Mazzola, or Parmigianino's namesake, Girolamo Francesco Maria Mazzola, who were renowned for their mastery of chiaroscuro and intricate detail. The serene expression on Saint John's face, his penetrating gaze, and the gentle curve of his lips, suggest a deep spiritual connection to the divine. The eagle, with its sharp gaze and outstretched wings, symbolizes the power and majesty of the divine revelation that Saint John received. This beautiful work of art, a testament to the rich artistic heritage of England during the 18th century, is now part of the permanent collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. and serves as a reminder of the enduring power of religious art to inspire and uplift the human spirit.
