EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Alessandro Magnasco's masterpiece, "Saint Anthony of Padua preaching to the fishes at Rimini" painted between 1720 and 1725. The oil on canvas artwork measures 55 x 85 cm and is currently housed in the Musee de la Chartreuse in Douai, France. In this intriguing scene, Saint Anthony of Padua stands on a stormy beach, surrounded by crashing waves. With his arms outstretched and eyes filled with fervor, he passionately delivers a sermon to an unexpected congregation - a group of attentive fish swimming near the shore. Magnasco's unique mannerist style brings this extraordinary moment to life. The dramatic lighting and bold brushstrokes create an atmosphere charged with spiritual energy. As Saint Anthony preaches his message of faith and hope, the fish seem captivated by his words, their scales shimmering under the artist's skillful hand. The painting captures both the power of nature and the divine intervention that transcends it. It reminds us that even amidst chaos and uncertainty, there is always room for connection and understanding. Through this remarkable depiction, Magnasco invites viewers to contemplate our place within creation and reflect upon how we can find solace in unexpected places. With its rich symbolism and masterful execution, "Saint Anthony of Padua preaching to the fishes at Rimini" continues to inspire awe centuries after its creation.
