EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of the fresco "Saint Mark and Saint Dominic" by Fra Angelico, located in the Sala del Capitolo at the Museum of S. Marco in Florence. The artwork, created around 1442, beautifully exemplifies the Early Renaissance style with its intricate details and vibrant colors. In this particular section of the fresco, we are drawn to the Crucifixion scene where Saint Mark and Saint Dominic stand as witnesses to Christ's sacrifice. The figures are depicted with utmost reverence and devotion, their religious habits adding an air of solemnity to the composition. The male saint is dressed in traditional attire, his headdress indicating his religious affiliation. On his left side stands a female figure believed to be Virgin Mary herself, holding an object that resembles a book - symbolizing her role as Mother of God. Various other saints surround them including St. Francis of Assisi, St. Lawrence, St. Bernard, SS Cosmas and Damian, St. Jerome, St. John the Baptist among others – each identifiable through their distinctive attributes or symbols. The artist's mastery is evident not only in capturing human forms but also in incorporating symbolic objects such as crosses and skulls throughout the composition - representing themes related to Christ's crucifixion and mortality. This remarkable artwork seamlessly blends elements from both Renaissance and Baroque styles while paying homage to Europe's rich artistic heritage from both periods spanning over a millennium. Thanks to Alinari Fratelli’s skillful photography captured in 2002; we can now appreciate this masterpiece even if we cannot visit it personally today.
