EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite drawing of "Ms 701 fl. 34v" by the European School in the late 15th century. Measuring approximately 23.5x29.8 cm, this pen and ink masterpiece offers a unique perspective on the renowned Spinario sculpture from ancient Greco-Roman Hellenistic art. The focal point of this drawing is the Spinario, also known as Boy with Thorn or Fedele (Fedelino). The sculpture depicts a young boy delicately removing a thorn from his foot, capturing both vulnerability and determination simultaneously. This iconic image has captivated audiences for centuries. Displayed within a manuscript, this sketch forms part of an extensive study exploring various aspects of classical art. The artist's attention to detail is evident in their depiction of nudes, amazons, sculptures, and even Venus herself. With its timeless beauty and artistic mastery, this drawing represents the Renaissance period's fascination with classical themes and aesthetics. It serves as a testament to the enduring power of art to transcend time and connect generations through shared appreciation. We are grateful to have access to this extraordinary piece through kind permission from the Earl of Leicester and Trustees of Holkham Estate. As we admire it today, let us celebrate not only its historical significance but also its ability to evoke emotions and inspire contemplation about our own human experiences across time.
