EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Saint Simon, a saw in his lowered left hand" from the renowned series Piccoli Santi (Small Saints), created between 1500 and 1527. The artwork, attributed to Italian artist Marcantonio Raimondi, is housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The image depicts Saint Simon, a significant figure in Christianity, holding a saw with his left hand. This powerful representation symbolizes the saint's martyrdom and ultimate sacrifice for his faith. The engraving beautifully captures the intricate details of Saint Simon's full-length figure, highlighting Raimondi's exceptional skill as an artist during the Renaissance period. Raphael Sanzio, also known as Raphael da Urbino or simply Raphael, was instrumental in creating this masterpiece by providing the original design for Raimondi to engrave. Together they crafted a work that exemplifies religious devotion and artistic excellence. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of heritage art from 16th-century Italy, we are transported back in time to appreciate both its historical significance and aesthetic beauty. It serves as a testament to the enduring impact of religion on society while showcasing the talent of these esteemed artists. Visiting this museum allows us to immerse ourselves in centuries-old masterpieces like this one – reminders of our rich cultural heritage that continue to inspire awe and admiration today.
