EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable moment from the "Life of St. Francesca Romana". Painted by Antoniazzo Romano in 1468, this exquisite fresco depicts the saint's return from St. Paul's Basilica in Rome on June 28,1438. As she walked along, Saint Francesca was suddenly overcome with ecstasy and found herself floating above a stream. Intriguingly, despite being immersed in water, the saint emerged completely dry. The detail showcased here showcases her rising from the stream untouched by even a single droplet of water. This miraculous event left those witnessing it awe-struck and further solidified Saint Francesca's reputation as a holy figure. The painting is housed within the Monastery of Tor de Specchi in Rome, Italy – an appropriate setting for such a sacred depiction. Its vibrant colors and meticulous brushstrokes exemplify Romano's mastery of Renaissance artistry. Luisa Ricciarini skillfully captured this stunning artwork through her lens, allowing us to appreciate its beauty and significance even if we cannot witness it firsthand. Through this photo print, we are transported back to that extraordinary day when Saint Francesca experienced divine intervention during her pilgrimage. As we gaze upon this image, let us reflect on the power of faith and devotion that can transcend earthly limitations – reminding us that miracles can happen when one truly believes.
