EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the exquisite artwork titled "Noli me tangere" created by Pietro Monaco in the 18th century. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this masterpiece depicts a scene from the New Testament where Jesus Christ appears to Mary Magdalene after his resurrection. The etching showcases an angelic figure surrounded by cherubs and amorini, set against a backdrop of lush gardens with palm trees. A man can be seen tending to the flower beds with a hoe, representing agriculture and nature's harmony. The concept of amazement is beautifully portrayed through the expressions on the faces of those witnessing this divine apparition. Pietro Monaco's attention to detail is evident in every element of this artwork, from the intricate floral arrangements to the delicate shading techniques used throughout. The contrast between light and dark adds depth and drama to the composition, emphasizing its emotional impact. As viewers gaze upon this print, they are transported back in time to witness a powerful moment in Christian history. It serves as a reminder of faith's significance and invites contemplation on themes such as spirituality, redemption, and human connection with divinity. This print not only preserves Pietro Monaco's artistic brilliance but also allows us to appreciate his contribution to Italian heritage art.
