EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page of "De Controversiis" by Robert Bellarmine, a renowned Jesuit theologian and writer. Published in Cologne in 1620, this edition holds significant historical value. The image captures the intricate details of the printed paper, which is believed to be created by a German School during the 17th century. Robert Bellarmine, also known as Cardinal Roberto Bellarmino (1542-1621), was an influential figure in Christianity and Catholicism. His most notable work, "De Controversiis" was first published between 1581 and 1593. This monumental writing played a crucial role during the Counter Reformation period. The title page features six pine cones within Bellarmine's family coat of arms. These pine cones symbolize his lineage and add a touch of elegance to the overall design. As an Archbishop of Capua and later canonized as a saint in 1930, Bellarmine's contributions to theology are highly regarded. Displayed at Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this rare print offers us a glimpse into history through its literary significance and artistic beauty. It serves as a reminder of the profound impact that writers like Robert Bellarmine had on shaping religious discourse during their time. This mesmerizing photograph from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate not only the visual aesthetics but also highlights the importance of literature and intellectual pursuits throughout different periods in history.
