EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail from the 15th-century oil on canvas painting, "St George and the Dragon" by Cosimo Tura. The artwork is housed in the Museo della Cattedrale in Ferrara, Italy, and beautifully captures the essence of this iconic biblical tale. In this particular section of the painting, we witness St George engaged in an intense battle with a fearsome dragon. The knight's noble steed stands tall as he fearlessly charges towards his scaly adversary. With lance held high and determination etched upon his face, St George epitomizes bravery and chivalry. The composition also features a princess anxiously observing the duel from afar. Her delicate presence adds a touch of vulnerability to the scene while symbolizing hope for salvation from this menacing creature. Cosimo Tura's masterful brushstrokes bring every element to life - from the intricate details of armor and flowing manes to capturing the raw power exuded by both horse and dragon. This exquisite piece exemplifies quattrocento artistry at its finest. Luisa Ricciarini has skillfully captured this remarkable detail through her lens, allowing us to appreciate Tura's work even more intimately. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are transported back to an era where knights fought valiantly against mythical beasts - reminding us of timeless themes such as courage, sacrifice, and triumph over evil that continue to resonate today.
