EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a breathtaking moment from the Altarpiece of St. Claire, showcasing the remarkable painting by Lluis Borrassa. The detail depicted is titled "St. Dominic Rescuing Shipwrecked Fishermen from Drowning" and it transports us to a scene filled with drama and divine intervention. In this powerful image, we witness Saint Dominic, a friar and preacher, defying the stormy sea as he rushes to save fishermen who are on the verge of drowning. The capsized boat teeters on the brink of sinking while tumultuous waves crash around them. Despite these perilous conditions, Saint Dominic fearlessly swims towards them, his green robes billowing in the wind. The composition exudes an air of urgency and desperation as each stroke brings Saint Dominic closer to rescuing those in need. His unwavering faith is palpable as he prays fervently for their safety amidst this chaotic tempest. Borrassa's masterful use of oil paints adds depth and texture to every element present – from the churning waves to the sinking ship – making this artwork truly come alive before our eyes. This extraordinary piece serves as a reminder that miracles can happen even in times of great adversity. It showcases both human bravery and divine intervention working hand in hand to rescue those facing imminent danger at sea.
