EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of "Paradise" painted by Carlo Saraceni in 1598. The oil on copper masterpiece, measuring 53 x 46.7 cm, is housed in the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. In this heavenly depiction, Christ and God the Father take center stage, surrounded by symbols representing the Evangelists. They are accompanied by the Virgin Mary and Saint John the Baptist on either side. The foreground figures include the Doctors of the Church on the left, Saint George at center stage, and Saint Christopher to their right. Notably, a man gazes from bottom left corner - possibly an unidentified patron who commissioned this awe-inspiring artwork. The painting exudes religious symbolism and evokes a sense of divine serenity. It showcases elements such as angels, saints, and musical instruments that symbolize salvation and glorification within Christianity. With its baroque style and meticulous attention to detail characteristic of Renaissance artistry, "Paradise" invites viewers into a realm where mortal boundaries dissolve into eternal bliss.
