EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable fresco by Antonio Bazzi, also known as il Sodoma, depicting the triumph of Saint Benedict over temptation. The scene unfolds in the refectory of the Abbey of Monte Oliveto Maggiore in Florence. In this powerful image, we witness Saint Benedict's unwavering commitment to his faith and his resolute determination to resist evil. Stripped of all worldly possessions and standing naked before a thorn bush, he throws himself into its prickly embrace. As he endures physical pain, an angel valiantly battles against the demon lurking nearby. The artist skillfully captures both the agony and ecstasy present in this profound moment. Through vivid colors and intricate details, Bazzi conveys the struggle between good and evil that lies at the core of human existence. Saint Benedictine founded the Order of Benedictine during a time when religious devotion was paramount. His story serves as a reminder that even those with great virtue face temptations but can overcome them through their unwavering faith. As we gaze upon this awe-inspiring artwork, we are reminded of our own personal battles with temptation and how our choices shape our lives. It is a testament to free will and highlights the eternal struggle between vice and virtue. This print invites us to reflect on our own spiritual journeys while marveling at Bazzi's masterful portrayal of this pivotal moment in Saint Benedict's life.
