EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Correggio's masterpiece, "Holy family with St. John Baptist as a child" painted in 1517. The oil on poplar panel painting, measuring 63x53 cm, is housed at the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Orleans, France. Correggio, also known as Antonio Allegri (c. 1489-1534), was an Italian Renaissance artist renowned for his exceptional skill and ability to capture religious scenes with great emotion and beauty. In this particular artwork, he depicts the Holy Family - Virgin Mary, Saint Joseph, and Jesus Christ - alongside a young St. John the Baptist. The composition exudes serenity and tenderness as Mary cradles baby Jesus while Joseph looks on lovingly. St. John stands beside them in awe of the divine presence before him. Correggio's attention to detail is evident through his masterful use of light and shadow that adds depth and dimension to the figures' expressions and drapery folds. This painting serves as a testament to Correggio's profound understanding of biblical characters and his ability to convey their significance through artistry. It invites viewers into a moment frozen in time where they can contemplate the sacred bond between these holy individuals. Luisa Ricciarini has expertly captured this iconic artwork through her lens, preserving its essence for generations to come.
