EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of "The establishment of the order of the sisters of the visitation, 1734" by Giovanni Battista Pittoni. Painted in oil on canvas, this masterpiece is housed at Fondazione Magnani-Rocca in Parma, Italy. The image showcases an allegorical scene from the 18th century, depicting a group of nuns and religious figures. The painting portrays a serene sky filled with fluffy clouds as a symbol of divine presence. Amongst them are angels and cherubs, adding an ethereal touch to the composition. The vibrant colors used by Pittoni bring life to each character and create a harmonious atmosphere. In this artwork, we witness an offering being made by these devoted women who have established themselves as members of the Sisters of Visitation Order. Led by their prioress and abbess, they stand united in their faith and dedication to their Christian religion. The attention to detail in this piece is remarkable; every brushstroke tells a story. It serves as both a historical record and an artistic expression that transcends time. Through this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, viewers can appreciate not only Pittoni's technical skill but also his ability to capture spirituality through art. It reminds us that art has always been intertwined with religion throughout history.
