EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the exquisite beauty of the Chapel of St. Jerome, a fresco painted by Benozzo Gozzoli in 1452. Located in the Church of St. Francis in Montefalco, Italy, this masterpiece is housed within the Museo di San Francesco. The fresco depicts a stunning scene on its upper wall, where Christ is crucified between four revered saints - St. Dominic, St. Francis, St. Romuald, and St. Silvester. At the center of attention lies a remarkable fake polyptych featuring the Virgin Mary and Child surrounded by S. Anthony of Padua, St. Jerome, St. John, and St Louis of Toulouse. On one side of this breathtaking artwork, we witness an emotional moment as Saint Jerome leaves Rome behind him while on his journey towards spiritual enlightenment and devotion to God's word. On the other side stands another powerful image as Saint Jerome compassionately removes a thorn from a lion's paw. The vaulted ceiling showcases intricate details with representations of the four evangelists - symbols that hold significant meaning within Christianity. Through this photograph taken by Ghigo Roli from Fine Art Finder, viewers are transported into an era filled with religious fervor and artistic brilliance that continues to inspire awe even today.
