EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece, "Saint John the Baptist" created between 1505 and 1507. Painted with oil on poplar wood, this artwork measures 71 x 52 cm and is currently housed in the Kunstmuseum in Basel, Switzerland. The painting depicts Saint John the Baptist, a significant figure in Christian history known for his role as a prophet and baptizer of Jesus Christ. With an angelic aura surrounding him, Saint John stands tall with a cross held firmly in one hand while pointing heavenward with the other. His pose exudes confidence and proclamation of divine truth. Leonardo's meticulous brushwork brings out intricate details such as the wilderness landscape behind Saint John and his flowing hair that adds to his mystique. The painting also bears traces of earlier overpainting which earned it another name - "Angel of the Annunciation". As we gaze upon this Renaissance masterpiece, we are reminded of its religious significance within Christianity. It serves as a visual representation from biblical narratives found in the New Testament gospels. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this iconic artwork through their lens, allowing us to appreciate Leonardo da Vinci's genius even through a printed medium. This print is not only an exquisite piece for art enthusiasts but also holds immense historical value for those interested in Italian Renaissance art and religious symbolism.
