EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Pope Pius V, a revered figure in Catholic history, along with vignettes depicting the Battle of Lepanto. Published in 1586 as part of the "Vita del Gloriosissimo Papa Pio Quinto" this lithograph captures the essence of a significant event from 1571. In the main portrait, we see Pope Pius V deep in prayer, his profile illuminated by divine light. His expression reflects both devotion and determination as he seeks guidance from above. Surrounding him are scenes that depict the Battle of Lepanto, an epic clash between Christian forces and the Ottoman Empire's fleet. The battle was a turning point for Europe and Christianity as it halted Ottoman expansion into Western territories. The vignettes portray moments from this historic confrontation - ships engaged in fierce combat, brave soldiers fighting valiantly against overwhelming odds. This print is not just a mere reproduction; it is an exquisite facsimile that transports us back to the 16th century. It allows us to witness firsthand one of history's most critical events while also paying homage to Pope Pius V's role in leading the Holy League during this momentous battle. With its intricate details and rich symbolism, this image serves as a reminder of faith's power and humanity's resilience when faced with adversity. It stands as a testament to both artistry and historical significance—a true treasure for any admirer of fine art or student of history alike.
