EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable drawing of St. Paul, created by the talented artist Moretto da Brescia during the XVI century. The artwork is currently housed in the prestigious Pinacoteca Civica Tosio Martinengo in Brescia, Italy. The drawing beautifully exemplifies the fusion of High Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque styles, which were prominent during this period in Europe's art history. It offers a glimpse into the fashion and clothing trends of that era, with St. Paul depicted wearing an intricately designed costume complete with sandals as footwear. The image captures not only the physical attributes but also conveys a sense of spirituality and devotion through its portrayal of St. Paul as a saintly figure immersed in Christian religion. Holding a sword and an open book, he symbolizes strength and wisdom. Moretto's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, particularly seen in his meticulous rendering of textures such as fabric folds on St. Paul's mantle cloak. This mastery over technique further enhances the overall aesthetic appeal of this masterpiece. Dating back to approximately 1900, when this photograph was taken by Brogi from Alinari, it serves as both a historical record and testament to the enduring legacy of Moretto's work. This print invites viewers to appreciate not only the artistic brilliance behind this drawing but also provides insight into European art movements across different centuries – from First Millennium A. D. 's High Renaissance to Second Millennium A. D. 's Renaissance-Baroque periods.
