St Francis Receives the Stigmata, 1567 - A Divine Encounter in Black and White
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a profound moment of religious significance - "St Francis Receives the Stigmata". Created by Cornelis Cort in 1567, this engraving beautifully depicts the miraculous event that occurred to Saint Francis of Assisi during his time in the wilderness. In this black and white masterpiece, we witness Saint Francis kneeling amidst a breathtaking natural landscape. As rays of light pierce through the dense foliage, they converge upon him with divine inspiration. The artist skillfully portrays this transformative encounter as a cataract-like waterfall cascades behind him, symbolizing both physical and spiritual purification. The intense emotions are palpable as Saint Francis receives the stigmata - wounds resembling those suffered by Christ during his crucifixion - on his hands and feet. His expression reflects a mixture of pain and awe at this extraordinary connection with God's grace. Cornelis Cort's meticulous attention to detail brings every element to life; from the rugged geography surrounding Saint Francis to each delicate ray of light illuminating his figure. This Northern Renaissance artwork showcases not only Cort's technical mastery but also highlights the enduring power of faith throughout history. As you gaze upon this remarkable print from The Metropolitan Museum of Art collection, allow yourself to be transported back to 16th-century Christianity. Experience firsthand how art can capture moments where spirituality intersects with human existence – forever preserving them for generations to come.
