EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork titled "Saint Christopher Bearing Christ Child" by Giovanni Antonio da Pordenone. Created between 1484 and 1539, this pen and brown ink drawing is a true masterpiece of Italian art. The artist skillfully used brush washes and white gouache to highlight the intricate details on blue paper, which has been squared both vertically and horizontally. The composition features Saint Christopher carrying the Christ Child on his shoulders, symbolizing his role as a protector. With red chalk diagonals and charcoal shading, Pordenone achieved a remarkable chiaroscuro effect that adds depth and dimension to the figures. Measuring an impressive 14 1/4 by 9 3/4 inches (362 x 248 cm), this drawing captures every nuance of emotion in its subjects' faces. It is believed to be a study for a larger finished painting or fresco depicting Saint Christopher. In addition to its artistic significance, this piece holds historical value as it was once housed in an ecclesiastical silver rocco cupboard in Venice during the year of 1527. Today, it can be admired through Artokoloro's high-quality print reproduction from their Liszt Collection. With its meticulous attention to detail and profound spiritual symbolism, "Saint Christopher Bearing Christ Child" continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty.
