EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Altarpiece of San Cassiano, a wood painting created by Antonello da Messina in 1475-1476. Housed in the esteemed Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, Austria, this masterpiece depicts the Virgin and Child surrounded by an array of revered saints. At the center of this composition is the tender figure of Mary holding baby Jesus. Her serene expression exudes maternal love and devotion. To her left stands Saint Nicholas of Myra or Bari, known for his generosity and protection of children. On her right are Saint Ursula and Saint Dominica, both representing different aspects of faith and spirituality. Completing this sacred ensemble is Mary Magdalene, a prominent biblical figure associated with redemption and forgiveness. Each saint brings their unique symbolism to enhance the spiritual significance conveyed through this artwork. Antonello da Messina's meticulous craftsmanship shines through every brushstroke, capturing intricate details that breathe life into these religious icons. The rich colors and delicate textures transport viewers back to the Quattrocento period during which it was created. Luisa Ricciarini has skillfully captured this stunning piece through her lens, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even from afar.
