EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite fresco painting of "Bartholomew the Apostle and the Prophet Joel" created between 1492-1495. Housed in the prestigious Apostolic Palace within Vatican City, this masterpiece is a testament to the rich history of Christianity and Renaissance art. The artwork, attributed to Bernardino di Betto (also known as Pinturicchio) or his workshop, depicts Saint Bartholomew alongside the revered Old Testament prophet Joel. As one of Jesus' twelve apostles and a martyr for his faith, Bartholomew holds great significance in Christian tradition. The inclusion of Joel from Tanakh (the Hebrew Bible) adds depth to this allegorical composition. The fine details and vibrant colors employed by Pinturicchio's school of Umbria bring life to these iconic figures. This fresco can be found in Sala delle Sibille (Hall of Sibyls), part of Appartamento Borgia within Apostolic Palace. As we admire this piece, we are transported back in time, witnessing an important moment in biblical history through artistry that has stood the test of time. The fusion of mythology, literature, and religious symbolism makes it an invaluable cultural treasure. This print serves as a reminder not only of our shared spiritual heritage but also highlights the skillful craftsmanship that emerged during Italy's Renaissance period. It is a visual feast for those who appreciate both historical narratives and artistic excellence.
