EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness the timeless battle between good and evil personified by St. Michael the Archangel and a fearsome dragon. The Italian artist Bernadino Martini, also known as Zenale, skillfully portrays the youthfulness of St. Michael as he valiantly fights against the malevolent creature with his mighty sword. What sets this artwork apart is the delicate balance that St. Michael holds in his left hand - a symbolic representation of weighing men's souls. This intricate detail adds depth to the narrative, reminding us that our actions have consequences and will be judged accordingly. Martini's mastery shines through in every brushstroke, capturing not only the physical intensity of combat but also conveying a profound spiritual message. Through his artistry, he invites viewers to reflect on their own battles between right and wrong. This image serves as a powerful reminder of humanity's eternal struggle against evil forces while emphasizing the importance of finding equilibrium within ourselves. It speaks to our innate desire for beauty and goodness in an often chaotic world. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece by Bernadino Martini (Zenale), let us contemplate how we can emulate St. Michael's courage in fighting against darkness while striving for harmony within our own souls.
