EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite masterpiece known as the "Coronation of the Virgin, or Madonna of Monteluce" created around 1525 by renowned artists Romano, Giulio and Penni, Giovanni Francesco. Painted with oil on wood, this monumental artwork measures an impressive 354x232 cm and is housed in the Vatican Museums and Galleries in Vatican City. The Coronation of the Virgin depicts a significant biblical event where Mary, mother of Jesus Christ, is crowned as Queen of Heaven by God himself. Surrounding her are various apostles and saints who bear witness to this divine moment. The painting beautifully captures their awe-inspiring expressions as they gather around Mary's tomb. Symbolism abounds within this Renaissance masterpiece; doves representing the Holy Spirit gracefully hover above while angels play music in celebration. This scene portrays not only Mary's assumption into heaven but also highlights her central role within Christianity. The attention to detail and skillful brushwork evident in this painting exemplify why Romano and Penni are revered figures in art history. Their collaboration brings forth a harmonious blend of colors that radiate warmth and spirituality. Thanks to Stefano Baldini's expert photography skills, viewers can now appreciate every intricate detail from afar or up close. This print allows us to delve into religious iconography while marveling at the talent behind its creation.
