EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art titled "Foot washing. Life of Christ, Armadio degli Argenti" by Fra Angelico. Created between 1451 and 1453, this tempera on wood painting is housed in the Museo di San Marco in Florence, Italy. The artwork depicts a significant moment from the life of Jesus Christ - the Enema of the Foot. It is part of a larger series known as the History of the Life of Christ found within the Cabinet of the Sacred Vases or Silver Ex-Voto at Santissima Annunziata Church. Fra Angelico, also known as Guido di Pietro or Giovanni da Fiesole, was an Italian painter during the Quattrocento period. His masterful technique and attention to detail are evident in this Renaissance masterpiece. In this particular scene, we witness Jesus humbly washing one of his apostle's feet. The religious symbolism behind this act represents humility and servitude towards others. The composition exudes serenity and spirituality with its delicate brushwork and vibrant colors typical of Fra Angelico's style. This painting not only captures a biblical event but also reflects the artist's deep faith and devotion. Luisa Ricciarini has beautifully captured this iconic artwork through her lens, allowing us to appreciate its intricacies even from afar. Through her photography, she brings to life centuries-old religious art that continues to inspire awe and contemplation today.
