EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported to the Abbey Church of Sant Antonio di Ranverso in Piedmont, Italy. The focal point is a remarkable fresco depicting St Luke the Evangelist, created by the talented artist Giacomo Jaquerio during his active years between 1403 and 1453. St Luke is portrayed seated at a desk with an air of serene concentration. His face radiates wisdom as he diligently writes on a scroll, capturing his divine inspiration for the Gospel that bears his name. To symbolize his connection to nature and creation, an ox or bull stands beside him - an emblematic representation often associated with St Luke. What truly sets this artwork apart is the addition of majestic wings sprouting from either side of the ox's body. These magnificent wings signify St Luke's status as one of the four winged evangelists alongside Matthew, Mark, and John. They serve as a visual reminder that these holy men were divinely inspired messengers spreading God's word throughout history. This stunning print allows us to appreciate both Jaquerio's artistic prowess and St Luke's significant role in Christian tradition. It serves as a testament to human creativity and devotion while inviting viewers into a world where spirituality intertwines seamlessly with artistry.
