EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a profound moment in religious history. Painted by Carlo Crivelli during the Renaissance period, it depicts Saint Francis of Assisi engaging in an extraordinary act of devotion. The image showcases Saint Francis catching the blood flowing from the wounds of Christ, symbolizing his deep connection to Jesus and his suffering. The painting beautifully portrays Saint Francis as a monk with stigmata, bearing the marks of Christ's crucifixion on his hands and feet. This visual representation emphasizes his role as a mystic and ascetic within Christianity. As one of its most revered figures, Saint Francis is known for founding the Franciscan Order and serving as a patron saint. Carlo Crivelli's masterful use of oil on wood brings this spiritual scene to life with vibrant colors and intricate details. The Venetian school artist skillfully conveys both emotion and piety through every brushstroke. Currently housed at Museo Poldi Pezzoli in Milan, Italy, this artwork serves as a testament to Christian faith and devotion throughout history. It invites viewers to reflect upon their own beliefs while appreciating the artistic genius behind this masterpiece.
