EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the left panel of Cosme Tura's masterpiece, "Saint Francis" created between 1470 and 1480. The renowned Italian artist skillfully depicts Saint Francis of Assisi, a prominent figure in Christianity, in this fifteenth-century altarpiece. Standing at full length, the saint is portrayed with his characteristic bare feet and humble attire, emphasizing his devotion to a life of poverty. Cosme Tura's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this painting. From the intricate hairstyle to the flowing robes and book held firmly in hand, each element adds depth and character to Saint Francis' portrayal. The vibrant colors used by Tura bring an ethereal quality to the piece, enhancing its spiritual significance. As one gazes upon this artwork housed within the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , they are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever by Tura's brushstrokes. The serene expression on Saint Francis' face suggests deep contemplation or perhaps even divine revelation. The inclusion of stigmata on Saint Francis' hands further emphasizes his connection with Christ's suffering during crucifixion. This powerful symbol serves as a reminder of his unwavering faith and commitment to spreading God's message. Cosme Tura's "Saint Francis" stands as a testament not only to his artistic mastery but also as an enduring representation of religious devotion during the Renaissance period. It continues to captivate viewers today with its timeless beauty and profound spiritual resonance
