EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic figure of Saint Lawrence, a Roman deacon and martyr who lived in the 3rd century. Published in 1881, this image depicts Staint Lawrence distributing the wealth of the Church to the poor, an act that symbolizes his commitment to charity and relief work. The woodcut engraving is based on a detail from a remarkable fresco cycle created by Fra Angelico between 1447 and 1449. The original artwork can be found in the Cappella Niccolina of the Palazzi Pontifici within Vatican City. Fra Angelico, an esteemed Italian painter from the late Middle Ages, beautifully captured Saint Stephen and Lawrence's lives through his masterful brushstrokes. In this illustration technique, every line etched into wood conveys intricate details of Staint Lawrence's selfless act. His vertical presence as he distributes alms reflects his devotion to Christianity and his role as a deacon serving under Bishop Sixtus II during Emperor Valerian's persecution. This powerful image transports viewers back in time to witness Staint Lawrence's unwavering faith amidst adversity. It serves as a reminder of his martyrdom for refusing to renounce his beliefs even when faced with torture and death. Whether displayed for its historical significance or admired for its artistic beauty, this print brings together elements of ancient history, religion, and timeless human values that continue to resonate today.
