EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing artwork titled "Cycle of the Life of the Virgin, St. Joseph and the pretenders" by Giovanni Francesco da Rimini. Created around 1445, this oil painting on poplar panel measures 59.3x29.8 cm and is currently housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. The composition depicts various scenes from the life of the Virgin Mary, Saint Joseph, and other biblical figures. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully portrays each character with precision and emotion. The male figures are adorned with halos and nimbus symbols, representing their divine significance. In one scene, we see Mary holding baby Jesus while John the Baptist blesses them both. Another intriguing element is a priest reading from a Bible inside a temple-like structure nearby. Originally attributed to different artists throughout history such as Gentile da Fabriano or even an anonymous Venetian School painter, it was later associated with Giovanni Francesco da Rimini or Master of the Scenes of the Life of the Virgin. Part of an incomplete altarpiece consisting of twelve scenes dedicated to Mary's life journey, this artwork showcases remarkable craftsmanship that has stood the test of time.
