EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, as depicted by the talented artist Fra Angelico. The scene portrays Pope Sixtus II graciously bestowing church treasure to St Laurence, who then selflessly distributes alms to the less fortunate during the mid-15th century. Pope Sixtus II, elected in 257 and martyred just a year later under Valerian's persecution, stands as a symbol of unwavering faith and dedication to his beliefs. St Laurence, renowned for his role as Deacon of the Christian church in Rome during this tumultuous time, was condemned to death by being broiled due to his unyielding commitment. The fresco is housed within the Chapel of Nicholas V at Vatican City in Rome and pays homage not only to these revered saints but also to St Stephen. It beautifully showcases Fra Angelico's mastery of color and composition while capturing the essence of medieval art. As we gaze upon this awe-inspiring piece, we are reminded of the power that religion holds in shaping our society. The act of charity depicted here serves as an enduring testament to humanity's capacity for compassion even amidst adversity. Fra Angelico's artwork transports us back centuries ago when martyrdom was prevalent and faith served as an anchor for countless individuals. This remarkable print allows us a glimpse into history while inviting contemplation on themes such as sacrifice, devotion, and religious duty that continue to resonate with audiences today.
