EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable depiction of Cosmo De Medici as one of the Wise Men in a nativity scene. Created around 1930 by an unknown artist, this image showcases Italian banker and politician Cosimo de Medici (1389-1464) kneeling before the Virgin Mary. The inspiration for this portrait comes from Sandro Botticelli's painting "Adoration of the Magi" completed in 1475, where he included a portrait of his esteemed patron. Cosimo de Medici played a significant role in Italian politics during the Renaissance period. As one of the most influential figures in Florence, he supported various artists and intellectuals, including Botticelli himself. This portrayal not only reflects his religious devotion but also highlights his close relationship with Botticelli as his patron. The photograph is sourced from "The World's Story: A Simple History for Boys and Girls" by Elizabeth O'Neill, published by T. C. & E. C. Jack in London and Edinburgh around 1930. It offers us a glimpse into both historical events and artistic collaborations that shaped Italy during the fifteenth century. With its monochrome aesthetic, this image invites viewers to appreciate the intersection between art, religion, politics, and history within Renaissance Italy.
