EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a mesmerizing moment from the fresco of the cloister made by Giovan Antonio Bazzi di Sodoma, recounting the extraordinary life of Saint Benedict of Nursia. In this particular detail, we witness Benedict breaking a glass of poisoned wine with a simple gesture - making the sign of the cross. Painted during the Renaissance period between 1505 and 1508 at the Abbey of Monte Oliveto Maggiore in Florence, this artwork showcases both artistic brilliance and religious significance. Benedict's action is nothing short of miraculous as he thwarts an attempt on his life through divine intervention. The painting beautifully portrays his unwavering faith and connection to God. The intricate details in every brushstroke bring to life not only Benedict but also his surroundings – from the tablecloth to each fold in his robe. As founder of the Order of Benedictine, Saint Benedict holds immense importance within Catholicism. This scene symbolizes his ability to overcome adversity and protect himself against harm while remaining steadfast in his devotion. Luisa Ricciarini skillfully captured this awe-inspiring moment through her lens, preserving it for generations to come. Through her photography, we are transported back in time, allowing us to appreciate both the artistry behind this masterpiece and its spiritual significance within religious history.
