EDITORS COMMENTS
Saint Apollonia, a revered martyr and patron saint of dentists and those suffering from toothache, is depicted in this exquisite 15th-century painting by Piero della Francesca. Dated 1462, this Umbrian masterpiece was originally part of a polyptych, a multi-paneled altarpiece. Piero della Francesca, a renowned Italian artist of the Quattrocento period, painted this wood panel using his signature sfumato technique, which creates a soft, hazy effect, enhancing the lifelike quality of the saint's features. Apollonia is shown wearing a red cloak and a long, flowing robe, symbolizing her noble status. Her hands are bound with ropes, a reference to the legend that she was tortured by having her teeth extracted with pliers, or tongs, for refusing to renounce her Christian faith during the Roman persecutions. The saint's serene expression and the gentle light that illuminates her face convey her unwavering faith and courage in the face of suffering. The painting's rich colors and intricate details, such as the delicate folds of her cloak and the textured surface of the wood, are a testament to Piero della Francesca's mastery of the artistic techniques of his time. This stunning work of art, with its profound spiritual significance and artistic excellence, continues to captivate viewers and inspire awe more than five centuries after it was created.
