EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Study for Angels Sealing the Foreheads of the Children of Israel in Saint Peter's Basilica" transports us back to 17th century Rome. Created by Italian artist Pietro da Cortona, this sketch showcases his incredible talent and attention to detail. The scene depicted is inspired by the Book of Revelation from the Bible, specifically Chapter 7. We witness a group of angelic figures sealing the foreheads of children with crosses, symbolizing their protection during an apocalyptic event. The composition is set against the backdrop of St. Peter's Basilica, one of Christianity's most revered sites. Cortona masterfully captures both movement and emotion in this monochrome drawing. The delicate lines bring life to each figure as they hover above a serene body of water filled with boats. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the image, emphasizing its dramatic nature. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded not only of Cortona's artistic prowess but also his ability to convey religious themes through his work. This print serves as a testament to Italy's rich cultural heritage and its significant contributions to art history. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this piece invites viewers into a moment frozen in time – an ethereal glimpse into biblical prophecy brought forth by Pietro da Cortona's skilled hand.
