EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense moment of an exorcism, as a demon is being expelled from a possessed woman. Painted by Lorenzo Salimbeni in the 14th century, this oil on panel artwork showcases the artist's mastery in depicting supernatural themes. The scene unfolds with a group of individuals surrounding the collapsed and fainted woman. A male figure, possibly a monk or priest, takes center stage as he holds and helps her during this harrowing ordeal. With one hand gesturing towards heaven and clutching a bible in the other, he symbolizes his role as an exorcist. The atmosphere is filled with tension and fear as a demonic creature looms over them all. Its menacing presence is palpable, representing evil and spiritual possession. The candlelight flickers ominously against its grotesque form. In their collective efforts to banish this malevolent spirit, these religious figures engage in acts of purification and faith. Their determination to free the victim from this supernatural affliction shines through their expressions. This artwork serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a testament to religious devotion throughout history. It reminds us of humanity's eternal struggle against darkness while highlighting our unwavering belief in divine intervention for salvation.
