EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing detail from the Saint Dominic altarpiece, also known as Pala di Fiesole, created by Fra Angelico in the early 15th century. The focus of this image is on the Madonna and child with angels, showcasing the artist's exceptional talent for capturing religious subjects. The central figure of the Virgin Mary tenderly holds her divine child while surrounded by a group of cherubic angels. The delicate brushstrokes and vibrant colors bring life to this sacred scene, evoking a sense of serenity and devotion. One cannot help but be drawn to the radiant aureole above Jesus Christ's head, adorned with a cross symbolizing his divinity. It serves as a powerful reminder of his role as both human and divine. Fra Angelico's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this artwork. From the intricate folds in Mary's robes to each angel's ethereal wings, every element contributes to an overall harmonious composition. As we gaze upon this masterpiece through Luisa Ricciarini's lens, we are transported back in time to witness an intimate moment between mother and child. This photograph not only showcases Ricciarini's skillful capture but also pays homage to Fra Angelico’s enduring legacy within Renaissance art. Whether one appreciates it for its religious significance or simply admires its artistic beauty, this print serves as a timeless testament to the power of faith and artistic expression throughout history.
