EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork titled "Saint Martin Beggar" created between 1493 and 1500. The piece, attributed to the renowned Italian artist Vittore Carpaccio, is a small study drawing believed to be preparatory work for an altarpiece at Zara Cathedral. Using pen and gray ink with brush wash, Carpaccio skillfully captures the essence of Saint Martin's humble act of charity towards a beggar. The faint traces of black chalk add depth and texture to this remarkable composition measuring approximately 7 x 4½ inches (178 x 114 cm). Notably, the borders have been cropped irregularly, adding an intriguing element to the overall design. Although this drawing omits any landscape details present in the final painting, it beautifully represents Carpaccio's attention to intricate details and his ability to convey emotion through art. The viewer can almost feel Saint Martin's compassion radiating from the page. Artokoloro has masterfully preserved this historical gem in their collection, allowing us to appreciate Carpaccio's artistic genius centuries later. This print serves as a testament not only to Carpaccio's talent but also as a window into Renaissance-era Venice where he lived and worked.
