EDITORS COMMENTS
This 15th-century fresco, titled "Saint Augustine leaving for Tagasthe, found a religious community" transports us back in time to witness a significant moment in the life of Saint Augustine of Hippo. Painted by Ottaviano Nelli, an Italian artist known for his mastery of Renaissance art, this piece is housed within the Sant Agostino Church in Gubbio, Italy. The scene depicted here showcases Saint Augustine embarking on a profound journey as he sets sail from his homeland towards Tagasthe (present-day Souk-Ahras), Algeria. Fueled by his unwavering devotion and desire to establish a religious community, Saint Augustine's determination shines through as he leaves behind familiar shores. Nelli's skillful brushstrokes bring this historical event to life with vibrant colors and intricate details. The boat that carries Saint Augustine symbolizes not only physical transport but also represents the spiritual voyage embarked upon by this revered saint. As we gaze at this remarkable artwork, we are reminded of the immense impact that Saint Augustine had on Christianity and Western philosophy. His writings such as Confessions and Rule of Saint Augustine continue to inspire countless individuals around the world. Luisa Ricciarini has beautifully captured this timeless masterpiece through her lens, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even from afar. This print serves as a testament to both Nelli's artistic brilliance and the enduring legacy left behind by one of history's most influential figures - Saint Augustine.
