EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a panel from the Pala di Rocca, an exquisite altarpiece created by Niccolo Antonio Colantonio during the Renaissance period. The panel depicts a significant moment in history - St. Francis Giving the Rule to his Disciples. In this scene, St. Francis of Assisi stands at the center, surrounded by his devoted followers and members of the Franciscan religious order. With outstretched arms and a serene expression on his face, he imparts the sacred rule to his disciples with great reverence and humility. The intricate details of this tempera and gold leaf on panel artwork bring life to each character present in this historical event. From bishops to nuns, monks to disciples, they all gather around their beloved saint as he shares his wisdom and teachings. The polyptych format adds grandeur to this masterpiece, making it an ideal centerpiece for any altar or sacred space. Its vibrant colors and meticulous craftsmanship make it truly awe-inspiring. Now housed in Museo e Gallerie Nazionali di Capodimonte in Naples, Italy, this work of art continues to inspire viewers with its spiritual significance and artistic brilliance. It serves as a reminder of St. Francis' profound impact on religious orders throughout history. Through this print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Art Library, we can appreciate not only Colantonio's talent but also delve into the rich cultural heritage that surrounds St. Francis Giving the Rule to his Disciples.
