EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the moment of profound spiritual transformation experienced by Saint Francis of Assisi (1182-1226), as he received the stigmata - the mysterious wounds corresponding to the crucifixion injuries of Christ - in the secluded Chapel of the Portiuncula, near Assisi, Italy. The German artist, known as the Master of the Stigmata, skillfully depicts Saint Francis in a state of ecstasy, his eyes closed in rapture, his hands raised in prayer, and the wounds on his hands, feet, and side clearly visible. The serene yet intense expression on his face conveys the depth of his devotion and the intensity of his spiritual connection to the divine. The date of this event is traditionally believed to have occurred on September 14, 1224, during a prayer vigil in which Francis asked God to grant him a deeper understanding of the Passion of Christ. The stigmata marked Francis as a chosen vessel for divine grace, and he bore these wounds for the remainder of his life, becoming a powerful symbol of Christian devotion and penance. The Master of the Stigmata expertly employs the use of rich colors, intricate details, and a sense of depth to create an image that resonates with the viewer on both a spiritual and emotional level. This print offers a glimpse into the profound depths of Saint Francis's faith and his deep connection to the divine, making it a powerful and inspiring work of art that continues to captivate and move people to this day.
