EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable artwork of Fra Filippo Lippi, a renowned Italian artist from the Renaissance period. The image depicts a predella panel titled "Saint Mamas in Prison thrown to the Lions" which was part of the Pistoia Santa Trinita Altarpiece created between 1455 and 1460. The painting portrays Saint Mamas, also known as Saint Mammes or Mammas of Caesarea, confined within a prison cell. Despite his dire circumstances, he remains steadfast in his faith. In an act of martyrdom, he is thrown into a den filled with ferocious lions. Lippi's attention to detail and mastery of tempera and oil on wood techniques are evident in this piece. The composition exudes dramatic tension through its use of light and shadow, emphasizing the perilous situation faced by Saint Mamas. The presence of lions symbolizes both danger and divine intervention. This scene draws inspiration from biblical narratives such as Daniel in the lion's den but focuses on the lesser-known story of Saint Mamas. Housed at the National Gallery in London, this artwork exemplifies Lippi's contribution to Florentine school art during this era. It serves as a testament to his skillful storytelling ability and profound understanding of religious iconography. This print allows viewers to appreciate Lippi's artistic genius while immersing themselves in a significant moment from Christian history.
