EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the profound artwork titled "Saint Martin Dividing Cloak Beggar" by the talented Italian artist Lorenzo Lotto. Created around 1530, this masterpiece captures a powerful moment of compassion and generosity. In this scene, Saint Martin is depicted dividing his cloak with a beggar, symbolizing his selflessness and willingness to help those in need. The brushwork with gray-brown wash adds depth and texture to the image, while white and cream-colored gouache highlights enhance its ethereal quality. The use of black chalk on brown paper creates a striking contrast that further emphasizes the emotional impact of the composition. Lotto's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, as he skillfully portrays the expressions on both Saint Martin's face and the beggar's countenance. Through his artistry, Lotto invites viewers to reflect upon themes of charity, empathy, and social responsibility. Measuring approximately 31.4 x 21.7 cm (12 3/8 x 8 9/16 inches), this print allows us to appreciate every intricate aspect of Lotto's work up close. Whether displayed in a gallery or cherished within your personal collection, this remarkable piece serves as a timeless reminder of humanity's capacity for kindness and compassion.
